Tim you have a little anarchist in you don't you. I'll help you I hear the negotiating committee booked hotel rooms deep into the spring of 17 and may have to cancel because they can't come to an agreement how much to tip the maidTim Nelson said:
They just said what the company is offering. The worst language of the two contracts. If you read the two contracts you'll know what they're offering on each article.AANOTOK said:
Last week they were arguing over the phone about how a steak should be cooked. Medium, medium rare or rare. One guy said well done and he has been removed from the negotiations.Worldport said:
I wouldnt be surprised if the last week of negotiations in August that they spend the time drafting for their fantasy league. Thats more productive than reducing negotiations down to drafting proposals, passing proposals, and exchanging proposals when there is no authority that is able enuf to do face to face negotiations and get things done.Worldport said:
This contract would have been taken care of and ratified 1 year ago if i was there. These guys could care less about members. This is a very very easy negotiation but these baboons effed it up with their egos and putting the association first. Possibly i could pull it off in 1 day but prolly 2.Worldport said:
Spoke to a friend in EWR rumor has it AA is getting their time back on 12/31 contract or no contract. I don't know what other cities were closed in AA bankruptcy now being worked by LUS. Personally I don't believe it's trueTim Nelson said:
You and I know that's not the case. We both know some offers have been better than that. There is no way they are going to give the agents 10 holidays and try and stick us with 5 (our contract). Neither contract has ready reserve, are they seeking that with the Delta pay. Are they trying to increase the cap on part time to 50% W? This answer you seem to be accepting is nothing more than a blanket statement that is recycled in update after update...why are you so afraid of the Ass throwing it on the table. Why do feel it has to be top secret. Why won't you exercise your right as a dues paying member and demand the Leadership stop with the lip service, stop allowing AA to call them liars and demand action. Here you go, here is our proposals,now let's show the members yours (AA). You ever wonder why unions are trusted less and less...accountability and transparency. Something they can control, but instead want to keep the members on a leash, at bay, in the dark if you will. I want to trust the union, and for the most part I do. But if I have to beg, fight, scratch to get every bit of information about stuff that does and will affect my life in the future, then something isn't right. Hell, AA is who I should be doing that with, not my representation. Lombardo had me sign up for some unite letter the other day. Cool, now what, was that the first shot, what are we going to do now. Obviously it didn't phase AA the first session or two after that showing of force...the update was the same. The Association knows how many of us feel my way, and the Association also knows how those on your side of the fence feel as well. Right now apparently they feel your side is the right side. Hopefully in the not to distant future, our fences will mend and we do have that industry leading contract.WeAAsles said:
