TWU negotiations.........what?

[Birdman]

"Our discussions with the TWU have been constructive, but there are still major gaps to address.

How soon can we expect AA to request a temporary wage concession to offset the rising cost of fuel and the insatiable appetite of bloodsucking lawyers?

According to the company, time is running out. THE TWU will take one or two extreme positions. Wages for jobs or jobs for wages.

But in reality, the TWU will lose both our wages and jobs. It's a trainwreck waiting to happen.

VOTE NO!

WE would be leaving money on the table if this T/A were to be ratified.

Retro is still on the table.

Everyone knows that the best offer doesn't come until the 11th hour of the 29th day.

I believe Industrial Unionism is on its way out.

Uh, it has been on the way out for 20 or 30 years. The airline industry just hasn't caught up with the rest of the private sector, thanks to the closed shop provisions of the RLA.

This is true and look how much better America is today compared with 30 years ago!

Yes, this is a tired quote...

Great Idea

I figure if this tired old "negotiations" thread is still valid and keeps getting revived then that quote is just as valid and goes hand in hand with thread! Negotiations ended long ago, yet someone keeps bumping this thread to the top. So I will keep including the infamous quote into the thread.

For Jim Little's definition of transparency, go to the TWU514 website and read the townhall Q&A and you'll be fully informed TWU style.

Can't say I really blame him. You guys were misled and told something better was imminent by your negotiators. Had the TA been ratified, you'd have higher more money in your now.
