I never really followed forums on the American Airline thread. You were there? I did often see some post from Bob Owens, etc., who often would come on this forum. He seemd pretty level headed.Tim wanted to come back to this. You said you were glad I didn’t leave. Oh no I’m gone. After the Admins knocked off Tom Talbert on the “suspicion” that he’s the famous 700UW and leaving other people just as bad as him (some worse) here, I was done.
What I’m doing now is just a total goof. Including You (And me) there are some serious Mental cases on here. Swamt, Josh, NYer, Lu Lu, Larry, NoTaco, Coney, (Al’s gone), The Politically Obsessive Kooks up in the Water Cooler, A few sick and twisted Pilots (They’re cold) And (Add Oddball here)
Forums is almost dead. Look all over and you’ll see it. It was fun in its day though.
So anyways, Brian Parker is talking about getting some more picketing going. I support that idea but what good is it if half of the Association leadership stands down and refuses to support picketing?
The next year will be interesting. Management wants its Holy Grail, i.e., no-displacement language, so the question becomes, how much? Certainly, we just can't give it away with the AIG I saw. Maybe good for you, but not good for LUS. Nah, I don't even think it's good for you. Why would we want to give that up unless we got mega things back for it?
Let's hope I win the Grand Lodge election and Sito gets the boot because then I will be able to say with certainty that we aren't going to cough up health care or part time restrictions. The company is making BILLIONS, so let's stop the madness of any givebacks. Period. The conditions don't dictate anything but a serious wage and benefit booster!
