LOL yeah amazing isn't it ?? Even you are questioning my pay as a mechanic cuz even you cannot believe I make that much. I guess your unions have never got to that level for AMT's so that wage is foreign to you. Really pathetic that unions other then Ibt at UPS can claim that. AMFA at SWA is pretty close.

Just think, if he is willing to give up $15/hr, settle for just one week of vacation for the next five years, with just 5 paid holidays, (but only paid at half pay if he is assigned to work), and settle for just five sick days he too can buy the right to call himself a Union Mechanic at American Airlines for only $700/year (after taxes). (In other words if he wanted to give up his non-union job and go work Union at AA as a mechanic he would neeed to accept at least a $32,000/year paycut, and thats if he was hired at Top Pay. Do you blame him for not wanting a Union? )

That is not what the previous ibt busines agent from Southwest has to say about the way ibt negotiations are handled.
Be to sure to join us for the AMFA Webinar on Tuesday Oct 30th @ 7:00 pm Central. Ask this question about ibt negotations and see what he gives for an answer.
Instead of some alias on an internet forum pretending to know the truth, Jack will put his face and his name on everything he says. Then contrast that information with "anamoly" the alias that has already been proven a liar on several occasions.

See you there!!!
I did say "at least".
Again Anomaly, not made up. Lived it. We had outsiders at the table as lead negos. CAL also had outsiders nego for them as well. With the closed door to negos that the teamsters always use while nego contracts is how and why the teamsters can work out "behind closed door deals" with the company in a private hotel room. This was in fact done (as we have already proven) and will more than likely be brought up in the webinar. The same shanigans were also played out over at CAL.
Some of you guys are expressing if AMFA can handle the greiv. and arbitration cases when they take over at AA. Just to let you know; AMFA has handled numerous upon numerous arbitrations since the teamsters got fired. Matter fact, AMFA has done more arbitraded cases at SWA in under 10 years than the teamsters handled in there almost 30 years at SWA. What does that tell ya?? The teamsters would always just let the company do what it wants and never take a stand against them. At the time, the teamsters had company yes men at the helm for the teamsters, and there for awhile, nothing was grieved or challenged for many many years. These type of folks are currently in management positions for the company. It is built into AMFA's constitution that you cannot take a company position for at least 2 years after being a union rep or officer.
This former teamster BA will in fact feed you guys the truth of how the teamsters really operate on the insides, especially at their upper officers level, it will be an eye opener for all.
Hey "Scab Supporter" (Anomaly) It would be worth your time to tune in and really see this. Matter fact I recomend you ask any questions about ANYTHING that you have been spreading on this forum, which is all lies and faulse mis-represented infomation.
Trust me I would be there if I could live. Kids school event will prevent me from watching live. But I assure you I will be watching the recorded video later.
Spread the word guys 7pm Oct 30th Webinar @ http://www.amfa-aa.com

Had me a close encounter with a Teamster today. I stepped out of an arbitration hearing for a breath of fresh air in the Hotel breezway and seen a Teamster standing outside. I asked him. What brings the Teamsters to town? He said, his local. I said. Who do you represent here in Tulsa? He said nobody really. I said I'm with the Transport Workers Union and told him I was here for arbitration and asked him if he does any arbitration and he said, that is too much like work....Hmmmm?
Kinda got the cold shoulder after I identified myself and why I was there. He got a wholly crap look on his face after I told him I was with the TWU....Go figure

That was because you interrupted the "alliance" meeting that was suppose to be undisclosed.
Good thing you did not pry into it further.
