The Reno flight attendants didn't have a contract when AA acquired them. They had just voted to have the Teamsters (I believe) to represent them.jsn25911 said:I wished we would have been around to help the Reno people.
What inside source did you get this from?LiveInAHotel said:I don't think we will be seeing Wardo on the line again. He is seeking a management position with AMR. It was probably a deal he made with Carty to sell us out!
I'm not mad at anyone. If Ward doesn't win we move on. I'm not a huge fan of Ward but I think he is our best option. One thing Ward has in his favor that eveyone wants to forget is - He was the one here when we got the best contract we ever had. I'm over the concession issue already, I'm ready to look ahead and put the best canidate in office that will help us in the next round. Alot of people are looking for a scape goat for what happended last year. I say turn the other way and look down the road a bit. The sooner we get organized for our next round of negotiations the better. You are right, alot of people are uninformed. Its just like the TW'ers on this board that blame AA and APFA for all their problems, TW was on the verge of disappearing without AA stepping in. Ward is not the cause of all our concessions, every group took a hit. Could we have come out a little better? Maybe, but I'm not willing to throw the baby out with the bath water.jsn25911 said:Miami - Since the moderator will not let me use that old expression - I will try to say it another way.
You are always mad at the TWA people -and reno people. and any AA f/a that didn't vote for Ward. You don't want the truth to get out about Ward...............You even state that he has done a good job negotiating a contract. WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? WHERE WERE YOU AT DURING THE LAST NEGOTIATION? Ward gave it all away. He is inexperienced - doesn't know how to work with the company (for the union membership). He was a company person during the negotiations.
You need to get on that medication that you say all the people are on. It would help you remember.
Boeing had an offer on the table, which is why AA made its move when it did, it wanted to keep ahead of United and did not want to lose that opportunity.MiAAmi said:TW was on the verge of disappearing without AA stepping in.
I am very confident that the seniority suit will follow previous suits like this one (ie Reno).
What more do you want from her - here is her statement of committement. You arespreading lies! She said she will ensure its final and successful conclusion as it was written.fliboi78 said:i know one thing is that tommie will have a hell of a time getting the junior votes! its unfortunate but true from my point of view. :unsure: i don't like ward either. :down: he is the reason why i lost my car and am in severe debt. but i'd rather loose that stuff for now than not know how tommie stands on the twa seniorty issue. everytime i or someone else asks for her stance on it she is so vague. it is not very comforting to us junior people who were hired by AA. we all must vote on the issues that affect us. unfortunately i don't think tommie has my best intentions in mind. but hey...you win some, you loose some.
