Well Ballots Have been sent out and everyone is in the process of Marking their selections. I feel no one will be walking away with a land slide victory!
Local 514 President
- Thread starter Checking it Out
- Start date
I agree with your statement about the vote not being a landslide. . .but just for the presidents spot. There are stand-out candidates in the other top positions. And as far as the president's spot goes, there is really only one who stands out there as being the best man for the job.
May the best men (or women) win!!!!!

Everyone? Or the less than 50% that usually bother to vote?Checking it Out said:
I see Randy is already in a dead heat.
Is Rick the guy who set himself on fire?
Jim Cook is a least talking like a unionist. I like Mike Moore. He is not a myopic cultist and will criticize his own side. If Cook wins, and he believes in what he wrote and truly plans to act on it, he wont last long. They will either sway him, or remove him. We saw all that with Burchette, they bought him, then removed him.
Dennis, well enough has been said already.
Who is Luis?

I think he is the only one that will runaway with the vote.
People want change obviously it wasn't AMFA.

It aint over till its over, and even then there will be another drive.
I've got a better idea. Instead of not voting, write on the ballot Chuck Schalk. Then we can see how many votes Chuck got by the number of voided ballots. Wouldnt it be ironic if there were more voided ballots than any candidate got?

Just what direct result does a vote in TUL have to do with you, and what do you know about "a unionist"?Bob Owens said:
Being that Tulsa pushed to have me removed and Tulsa has the largest concentration of M&R and they pretty much determine the contract it has a lot to do with me, after all we are "Brothers" right?Nightwatch said:
I know that unionists fight to increase wages and benifits, not lower them. Job creation is the duty of Government and business. They dont want us to be unemployed, they just want us to work for less, strange how the TWU, an organization that calls itself a "union" has the same objectives as RTW and other enemies of Labor. Full employment, longer workweeks at lower pay.TWU and RTW, working together.

Hopeful complains about; "Only if we did this or that!"
Bob owens makes a good point, Tulsa has a direct bearing on what happens throughout the AA system.
Why than? Are the Amfa supporters allowing the Tulsa AMFA boys to put a person back in office who took major concessions? Since the AMFA VS. TWU elections has a high probability of not happening, it looks like they should be looking for the best person who will fight for what you want. The AMFA Line boys should be asking what is their motive besides the qoute: "Lets put the worse person back in office".
Wheres the Integrity in that?

I don't normally let things get to me on these boards but Bob, you are really stepping over the line on this one. What the hell gives you the right to make any suggestions as how to run our local here in Tulsa and to try to attempt to sabotage an important vote?????? You need to keep you sorry ass out of our business, the business that affects more that just you and your wannabes. It makes me sick to think that you would use this forum to push such unethical behavior. It looks to be by your own admission that you are just really pissed off that you got caught at being the ass that you are and got booted from your union position. How dare you try to take a stance that affects my family and many other families. You are a has-been that is looking to make a name for himself, while in the meantime don't care who it is you are affecting to get there. This is exactly what you complain about others doing. LOOK IN THE MIRROR BOB!!! Oh but I forgot, Bob Owens can do no wrong!!!Bob Owens said:
I have tried to keep some respect for you as a union man as well as a decent person but you are no union man and as far as being a decent person, I think you have just proved us wrong!!!. You are an arrogant, selfish, know-it-all who thinks this world revolves around him. Keep your worthless schemes along with your worthless ass up there in NY. And stay out of the events that affect our lives here in Tulsa!!
Bob lives outside the 60 mile radius of tulsa so you'll have to be a little more considerate to his open mindedness and realistic view points. The ripple effect of the concession agreements voted in by the tulsa voting block have an impact thats felt not only by our brothers at the line but throughout the industry as a whole. When other airlines can't get their unions to take concessions like the twu has over the years then outsourcing becomes the next line of defense for them. (twu outsourcing by proxy)twuer said:
