JCBA Negotiations and updates for AA Fleet

[WeAAsles]

BTW Al my crew has been reading our conversations and they've told me to tell you to keep your crusty old butt there.

They said they want junior guys. Not someone with your time.

Pre funding was just that. We put our own money out of our checks for a bank to pay for our retiree medical when we retired.

In our contract the company was required to match that amount. (By contract)

Those of us who did not take an early buy out offer and leave the company got back the portion that we put in out of our paychecks but the match portion is still up in the air waiting to see if we eventually get that back, come to an agreement on it, a settlement or a full on future loss of what was put in under our names?

If they give it back you probably won't be able to use it until you retire

I hate everything, I hate this forum now that Bob is gone. Weez if you were on the negotiating team you would be pissed I'm sure

I could never up-and-go from this place Al, just a tad bit busy.

I'd like to get something out of it. I invested the whole first portion in your old Airline at $19.50 a share.

I made a smart move. And I'd make a smart move with the other portion as well if I ever see any of it?

Truthfully, we've been getting the pudding knocked out of us with the increase of these domestic wide-bodys. It sucks!
