Buck said:Does anyone believe that being given a "choice" is a viable component given the average age of the TWU membership?
Weaasles, for someone who has claimed not to be a supporter of the IAMPF, you promote often.
Given that age is a factor is there enough time to retirement for anyone at American from the TWU side to achieve a reasonable payout?
WeAAsles said:Hey Bucky. Last week I was working with a new hire who was 20 years old.
And I'm frankly getting sick of you actually now.
I support CHOICE because I'm not just a selfish bastard who only thinks about himself.

you are exactly right - it would be much better if your vote counted and you felt free to vote your mindRoadking5560 said:I know you have a clear disdain for unions, and in many respects I totally agree they are not run as democratically as they should be. People in position of power no matter who they are have hidden agendas and sometimes work in their best interests rather than the people they represent. Much like politics I imagine. Many people I ran into at work simply do not care. As long as they get their monetary rewards in one form or another they're happy.
You do realize that is from an anti-union (IAM) former FA who was a big AFA supporter?1AA said:Read this over on the Delta forum. IAM pushing for representation for the flight attendants. They are desperate for members to be scammed into the IAMPF.
Consider this the Department of Labor has filed a lawsuit against a number of current and former IAM National Pension Fund trustees alleging multiple violations of federal laws protecting employees in pension plans.
The suit alleges that IAM National Pension Fund trustees breached their fiduciary duties by:
Failing to loyally and prudently select fund service providers, including consultants and fund investment managers;
Regularly ignoring required procedures included in the funds governing plan documents;
Creating conflicts of interest for the fund;
Unlawfully soliciting and accepting gratuities from plan service providers;
and
Spending and permitting others to spend fund assets lavishly on unnecessary trips, parties and extravagant food, wine, and accommodations.
Oink oink sounds like the slop must have been pretty thick at whatever grease-fest, good-ole boy, Vegas-style, cigar-smoke-filled-backroom-here-come-the-topless-dancing-babe-parties where the guys were blowing through hard working dues paying members money on goodness knows what hookers and booze?
This is a place where I have committed to providing NWA and DAL flight attendants truthful and accurate information about our union. I decided to create this blog after reading far too many of the unfortunate and dishonest anti-union blogs by SFO FA Jose Ibarra and Michael Lehr. For those who do not know the motivations of Jose and Michael, I believe it is important to know that Jose was the founder of our former independant union (PFAA) and sadly, he is still very angry that we replaced that union. Michael Lehr -- well, I'm not sure what his motivation is - it's not like he ever volunteered a day (or lifted a finger) for any of our unions on the NWA property -- nor does he understand how any of them operate. But, as a highly accomplished 'actor', I'm sure he can use all the publicity he can generate for himself - and what's more fun than being a watch dog for our flying partners who work hard to better our aviation careers.
Because we have so much at stake in our next AFA election, I felt it was time to hold Jose and Michael accountable for their false statements and their destructive campaign to destroy our voice at work. In return, I welcome the same accountability.
Let me start with a recent blog from Jose, entitled; AFA and the High Price of Failure, where he posts several false statements concerning flight pay loss for me and many others who have raised their hand to work for our union. Better yet, let me share with you the email I sent to Jose - along with his response:
