I appreciate your candor Raptor. The reason I asked about your seniority is becasue it seems that where AMFA has taken over representation the guys with the most seniority don't have to worry about much as far a job protection goes. I don't have 18 yrs. I dont have 10 yrs. What is it that AMFA gripes about, concessions for jobs? They don't trust the company, they don't trust TWU leaders, international or local. I guess AMFA is squeaky clean?? I have a family to support. My wages are lower because of the conrtact but I still have my job. I couldn't make what I make now anywhere else Raptor. Could you?? Noone is happy with the contract but it was necessary in my opinion. They didn't give all your pay and benefits away Raptor. None expected 9-11 or war or SARS or a poor economy all back to back. There was more to it than just fly by the seat of your pants vote.
By the way, I know CIO. Really a good person! Really.

I was once a young pup myself, but I never sacrificed my integrity and/or beliefs. When you speak of the ‘ME’ generation, you had better take a look in the mirror and realize how selfish you are. The ‘ONLY’!!! reason that you make the salary that you earn today is by the sacrifices that our Union Brothers/Sisters have made for us in their undying pursuit to make a living wage for their children. Even when I walked the picket line for my IAM EAL Brothers/Sisters in 89, I knew that they were sacrificing themselves for ‘US’!!!
From that time forward, I was a die hard IAM Unionist until the UAL ESOP ’Union Lead/International perpetuated’ scam.
From therein, I vowed to never again be a ‘SUCKER’!!!
For your edification, the majority of AMFA supporters were from IND.
Also, for your edification, the majority were ‘Junior’ employees (less than 10 years).
But they had the tenacity to appreciate that they had to make a sacrifice for their children and future generations.
You do not have the tenacity.!!!
You are all out for yourselves!!!

You don't know me from Adam sir. Pretty judgemental on your part don't you think? You are entitled to your opinion I suppose but don't tell me what you think I am because I choose to make a good life for my family. I am grateful for those who have come before me. I have never said I wasn't. So your comments are completely out of line with me sir. I have seen what AMFA calls tenacity. Allowing UAL to go into bankruptcy so even more people lose their jobs, so the retiree pension may be affected. At NWA where 4500 of your union brothers and sisters have lost their jobs.

What sacrifice are you referring to UT?????????
We (TWU members) ALL made sacrifices!!

I used to be a young pup too and and have not sacrificed my integrity and/or beliefs. I'm standing up for what I believe in.
And by the way I could care less about your past or present convictions. Talk to someone who cares will ya' pal. How's that for tenacity???
