The writer is a fleet service agent. Chip Munn's July 26 column ("Unions can sink US Airways") was self-serving and laughable. A pilot, of all people, condemns members of another union of "brinkmanship." Captain Munn has been very well compensated, even during very lean years, and I am sure is well situated for the future. For him to condemn our front-line people who work very hard for a fraction of his salary is not only insulting, but also insolent. But, after all, he is a pilot.
All we want is to be recognized and treated with the respect that we deserve, from management as well as other employee groups. If management deals fairly with us, we will certainly reciprocate.

Yes, When ALPA does it, the term used is negotiations. When CWA does it, the term is "posturing" and "brinkmanship".
First look at the author’s picture, he is a tired worn out old man, wanted to be a Skull and Bones member who wasn’t born of blue blood. This is the same author who slammed U in the past, slammed U very hard too! Now to read his words without raising ones brow is to look the other way. This paper has a known agenda and that agenda starts with a big B for business and everything extreme right wing where everyone earns their keep and no government exists. The powerful rule the weak die.USA320Pilot said:Let's all work to stop US Airways' bankruptcy
