The important thing to remember for all members, as we progress through negotiations, is to see what is said at Town Hall Meetings, regarding our negotiations, is the company's propaganda. The audience is carefully selected. Members should rely more on the input from their Collective Bargaining Representative. Based on what I'm hearing, to date, it seems the company is proposing good hourly wage up front. The devil lies in the details. The details, are the concessions proposed in other Articles of the contract. This is what makes the final agreement "cost neutral" for the company. We have seen this strategy work before. The company is sticking to what has worked in the past. Will history repeat itself? That is the question.  
 

The one thing that has is obvious in these Town Halls and State of the airline corporate pat on the backs is the longer these negotiations go on, Parker is reneging on what was said day one. You no longer her the 7 or 3 percent. Delta and United are no longer the targets. It's now on par with the industry...

So I guess there have been opportunities for Association representation at these Town Hall Meetings. I'm not sure. If tis is the case... the company remains one step ahead, regarding communication of their point of view, over our Association. A critical advantage.

Who's fault is that?

And there in lies the frustration with the TWU/IAM members. Do something and show someone...staying quiet and taking the verbal abuse is insane. IMO of course.

I highly doubt you will see retro when would it start? We have a contract.

C'mon. Xanadu and Sgt Pepper with the Bee Gees were the best movies of the 70's.

Stigwood was a genius.
