Ok...do you realize that MANY and I do mean MANY have absolutely NOOOOO idea about what is going on in Local 70? I find it hard to believe but it's true. Where do you get this ribbon? If signatures are needed it surely is an underground operation. I have spent MORE than my fair share of time in the crew room and terminal for about 4 days in a row and seen absolutely NOBODY to sign anything. Do you have to know somebody who knows somebody or what? This needs to be made a little bit easier ro accessable to f/a's if you want it done. A f/a running for a checkin then working doesn't really have time to find someone "hiding out" with a clipboard. When a f/a is running between flights or finishing a trip is NOT gonna go looking once again for someone with the secret recall sheet. WHY is this so hard to do? People will not care. WHY is a leaflet or note of some sort not distributed...is this ilegal to do? Just asking. Can we make this a little easier and visible?

I have been at the airport the last week every day. In the morning I sit in front of B-6 and then move to AWest about 3. Had to take this morning to at least pay my bills. I am going over to the airport now. At last 20 people have the packet to sign on the line.
Save an orange ribbon for me!

Airportman,

I am confused. I thought you were starting a recall of the LECVP? According to post #235, you said "SHE IS GETTING RECALLED..." So why would I go to the LECVP? Is she collecting signatures for her own recall, or are you changing your tune a bit? Hmm...

We need a CLEAN SWEEP in PHL!

Aladdin,

So get the ball rollin'! You're the man to do it! Don't just talk the talk.... When can we expect the recall of everyone to begin?

 

[HP_JACK]

From all that I read heare a recall of your Pres in PHL is in order. These issues you have with her are the same thing that took down our MEC Pres last year at Council 66. You need someone that has heart and not their own agenda. Over the years I have seen a lot of people doing things for the union for the wrong reasons. You need someone that wants to fight for the people not lookin for a bigger paycheck. Its a tough job these positions in the office... but they knew that when they signed up.

Foe those carrying recall sheets... Cheers to you and get those signatures. Get more people to collect!

100% Agreed, hp jack. The LECP in PHL has lost touch completely, and has absolutely no communication whatsoever with her membership. The only communication we have received from her in months is a scathing e-line about how horribly she has been treated by her fellow AFA70 officers. I believe the e-line is a great tool for communicating information about USAirways and union issues, not an avenue to defend yourself when you finally wake up and find yourself being recalled....

The LECVP is working hard to make this change happen. She has always been an advocate for us, and does whatever she can to improve the lives of FA's. She has no "personal agenda" as a couple of people on here believe. We are lucky to have her working on our behalf.

Thank you.

I will be at A WEST gate A-21 tomm from 0845--0915 with the recall list. If you want to sign it just ask me...Look for the red folder in my tote bag...it will be easy to spot don't be late...I have to work a flight... B)

I'm sure you know all to well what the LECVP is doing!

I would venture to say you have no idea what I may already be doing! That office will crumble around itself...it's already starting!

Well do believe that we now know who aredeeyou22 is. Case in point. If she has 37 years of Union experience and negotiationing under her belt then definitly believe that she needs to go. Can't see where she has negotated anything worthwhile and can't see where she nor her experience is currently helping. Think maybe the gravy train needs to end.

You are so wrong.

Terry works tirelessly to protect the rank and file member.

Her experience truly is an asset and you will be sorry as a group if she is replaced or removed.

This is a very TRUE statement...TG for LECP!!!

 

[HP_JACK]

Our Pres last year shot himself in the foot the same way putting out an e-line pointing fingers at everyone else. It was so easy for him to stay if he wanted it that bad. Put out a hotline regarding the charges.. take some responsibility... and apologize! Then get your act together and prove everyone wrong. Oh No he put out a he said, she said statement... pissed everyone off even more then the petioners came out in full force. Then a newspaper article in the AZ Republic. It was like watching an animal be hit by a car and slowly dying as everyone walked by.

The longer LA stays in PHL the more damage it will do! Get her out and get her out quick!

 

[aredeeyou22]

EVERYONE has a personal agenda. The question is really this.

Is the person's personal agenda or motives at cross purposes with the greater good of the members on AFA70?

While I do not care for her personally, I do think she has her heart in the right place on this. You could do much worse than have her as your leader!! OH Wait, you already are!

Piney,

I just have to laugh at this post. After referencing many of your posts (#18, 29, 37, 39, 55, 137, 150, 154, 169, 252, 260), we are able to see your absolute disdain for our LECVP. She is not worth it, according to you. What ever "run in " you had with her, you made it pointedly clear that she is not worth your time, or any of ours for that matter. We in PHL are being duped.

Now, you sit here and tend towards tolerance. Suddenly, you just don't "care for her personally," but we "could do much worse...!" She is "ok" now??? Not great, but better than nothing??? Suddenly, her "heart is in the right place?" Get real. LOL You talk out both sides of your mouth, and hold no credibility whatsoever.

I just realized, (reminded by a co-worker) that I have met you. I enjoyed having you on my flight, and was happy to have you "on my side." All that I can draw from this is that you talked to Pitbull, or read her posts, and backed off. You are her lapdog, plain and simple. What she says, goes. She says previously that LECVP is basically doing the right thing (post 244), so now you do too.

I am just assuming that your previous destructive comments regarding LECVP were completely personal, and you used this thread to further berate and belittle someone who is actually doing good things for the FA group, regardless of what horrid thing she did to you. You claim to be "on our side," but your comments, to me, say otherwise.

Thank you for your continued business.

PS: I still have the utmost respect for Pitbull and her views. They speak the truth, and are on target....

 

[aredeeyou22]

Well the truth of the matter is i arrived at this conclusion independent of PITbull. In fact I have had several PM exchanges with the LECVP and the "P" in PM means private and that is how it will stay.

Call it great minds think alike if you wish, but my whole point is this. The really important stuff will soon be upon you and the current LECVP, while flawed IMO represents your best hope for a workable transition agreement.

Deep deep down I only care about this to the extent that I believe a contract that keeps F/A's semi happy is in my best interests as a frequent flyer. Call it selfishness or enlightened self interest but that's my agenda here. A happy , motivated, customer focused F/A group is the goal because they are better able to provide a pleasant experience onboard.

IMO, the current leadership fails on every level in that regard. I've found her to be divisive, self centered, defensive and doesn't have the F/A's best interests at heart.

Piney,

I realize what the P in PM means, thank you. You need not worry about what will "soon be upon us," we are fully aware of it. The fight is a "COST NEUTRAL" contract, not the LECVP.... It is just a shame that you use(d) this thread to further advertise your own issues with the LECVP, which is no ones business but yours and hers.

This membership realizes how much the LECVP does for us, and she absolutely has the memberships best interests at heart. She was "divisive, self-centered, defensive" towards you, and that is a shame, but there must have been a reason, which, again, is NOT OUR BUSINESS. It's "P" for private, right??? So whatever tiff you have with her has nothing to do with how hard she fights for us. Thank you for the warning, though.

Tell me, what is her "personal agenda?" You yourself say that everyone has one. She has only a few years left here at USAirways, which is a shame. You think she wants to be LECP? I am pretty sure that had she wanted to be LECP, she could have been in this last election, no questions asked. 287 people voted for LECP. Trust me, more would have voted for the LECVP.

Thank you for your business.
