[Raptorman49]

Never ceases to amaze me how the keyboard warriors get quiet once you ask them to step out of the shadows & into the light by giving their name, if your Man enough to talk trash about someone at least be Man enough to be accountable for it by giving your name & location so as to have at least some shred of credibility ..... I Maned up & gave mine. ;-)

I'm not afraid I'm savvy, the name is Dan McCoy in Tulsa what's your name since your so brave ??? I held a vote no sign in front of the base while thousands drove by did you ?? No you didn't coward. You just talk trash from behind an Alias & a keyboard very impressive ......NOT

And you said you will be glad when I get layed off and help me push my toolbox out because you didn't think I was an honorable man. Huh I wouldn't let a puss help me push anything. You just stay in your air conditioned straight days shop and let the real men do the work your a real piece of work

I'm throwing the bs card! You have no idea what other airlines spend to do the same work aa does or did in house.

You're right; I don't know how much those other airlines spend on outsourced maintenance. But that's irrelevant to my post to Bob Owens to which you responded. I'm confident that those other airlines are spending less on overhaul than they used to spend before they outsourced it. I don't need to do a detailed comparison shopping trip to know that stuff is cheaper at Walmart or Target than it is at Bloomingdales or Neiman Marcus. If insourced overhaul were cheaper, then don't you think that well-run maintenance divisions of UPS, FedEx and others would be doing their own overhaul?

All I have to do is look at their financial statements to see that while they were in bankruptcy, the other airlines slashed their labor costs by a much larger percentage than did AA in 2003 and that when adding in their M&R (parts, materials and outsourced maintenance costs) line item, their labor costs plus M&R is a smaller number per ASM than the same figures at AA. It's been that way for years.

The other day, I posted that in the unlikely event that outsourcing really is more costly, that is AA management's mistake to make, and if outsourcing is more expensive, that's very good for your wages, as that means that airlines will fire the Aeromans and ST Aerospaces of the world and bring overhaul back inhouse, which will apply upward pressure to wages.

It's called Savvy, know when to hold them & know when to fold them & pick YOUR battles not someone else's battle, I don't mind helping someone with their agenda when it matches mine but if theirs a conflict then its time to part ways, this contract works for me so its time to part ways with some & persue MY Agenda. ;-)

I intend to win so you have to lose.

 

[Rogallo]

Retreat please. Be afraid very afraid in your little cush corner.

Ain't that the truth.

We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!

For those who voted No because you were true to yourself and not trying to do what someone told you to because you don't think for yourself I say Good for You because no one can ever take your dignity and self worth away from you.

For those who voted Yes because you were true to yourself and not trying to do what someone told you to because you don't think for yourself I say Good for You because no one can ever take your dignity and self worth away from you.

At least you voted either way and you voted the right way wether it be a no or a yes because in the end it is You that you have to be right with not people around you that do not share your opinion or belief. If anyone can argue that point then I believe you are talking out your rectum.

As they say "Opinions are like alot of posters on this board" Well that's not the way it goes but you know what I mean

If you Voted, no matter which way you decided I say Bravo and I applaud you for your effort!

Exactly voting in your best interest is Logical because each individual has to live with the consequences of their decision.
