That particular Tim Nelson bashing was on "Hell No". It's a United airline page with a United guy as admin. I got pounded, even by Delaney on the official website. lol. It isn't too heavy though. I have no problem putting and inserting my foot up these guys arses when they do their little weasel lies. Trust me, there will be some excuses and some of these clowns that you guys trust will flip like pancakes when it comes to putting their words to actions. Folks say, "They wont' do it to me", but they will. They raped HAL and raped their own blood at United and will have no problem doing it to US AIRWAYS and wrap it up with some BS about the NMB or some procedure or some other dopey thing they will try to pawn it off to. Watch. Am I a prophet? Nope. I just judge this union leadership by its actions. Our people have to be vigilant, active, informed, and knowledgable because when some NC members try to sell some BS thing to you [and several of them are terribly ignorant and rely on "Top people" lol to convinced them of lies] our peeps have to be prepared to rightly divide the truth and BS.
Giving up favorable language in the present contract should be positively off the table in this context. Increasing scope is a requirement. No bull S drop dead dates either. Getting fair pay raises without having to give up health care cost is mandatory. Keeping, at minimum, the current part time caps is mandatory. All of this won't come easy but management must understand that seamlessness won't come easy as well. Asking for much more than what is fair is required, agreeing to fairness is acceptable.
