TWU says the Teamsters are Telling Lies

[xUT]

When a group prepares for a strike and does so with good intentions it is honorable. You guys followed an over hyped real estate agent out the door to your doom and destroyed many good jobs along the way.

Again, it was not what you did....but how you did it. No preparation, No planning, No funds, No support!

Not much honor in that.

That's why you suck and will always suck.
What NW corporation did was repensensible, but you agree with it.
How can you say anything about 'honor' when you have none?

So striking is called quitting. That explains a great deal about you.

Members who went on strike are called honorable. People like you who call us quitters are the ones who cross picket lines.

We call you scab.

I read something a few weeks ago that said that the UAW as in what they call on here an Industrial Union gave AMFA $880,000 for their Strike Fund which I believe falls under your "No preparation, No planning, No funds, No support" perfectly in my opinion. I was under the impression AMFA was Super Anti-Industrial Union or is that unless they are handing out money when they had none? Maybe that is just the AMFA pushers we have at AA well TULE to be exact ?

True, AC. besides the UAW, other unions tried to pull amfa out of the muck because they realized what a failed strike with the RLA can do. A failed strike in this environment where people look to reasons to blame unions is not helpful to any of us.

amfa handled no preparations. The company made every attempt to warn them of their intentions.

amfa had no planning. They were completely unprepared for the inevitable strike other than making a few signs. The other professionally made strike signs and banners did not show up until later in the strike, and only after the donations from other INDUSTRIAL unions.

amfa had no strike fund, and the real estate investments were not paying off. For all intents and purposes, amfa at NWA was broke soon after the strike began.

amfa had no support from the other unions on property. I know the IAM as a former member. These are some solid union folks who do not take crossing a line lightly and live up to the name fighting machinists. I do not deny that there were members of the IAM who took on mechanics work during the strike. It makes me wonder, however, what kind of an a-hole do you have to be to turn a group of hard core union members against your union? The IAM prides itself on supporting picket lines. In the case of NWA, they helped the COMPANY?? I do not know the full story, but one day I would like to talk to "that" guy.

I do not disagree with Quagmire that the members are the union, but the union is responsible, has the duty in fact to be prepared for their members.

The mechanics at NWA did not fail, but the association charged with protecting them sure did.

I for one am glad he is here along with the WN, DL people their insight into the rest of the industry.

 

[Anomaly]

And you are on an AA forum?

And still an AC mechanic buck.

Thank You for the information Anomaly

And still an AC mechanic buck.

Maybe, maybe not, just not practicing the trade?

I would guess that you are an union representative.

And just what is your purpose for being here?

I remember him being asked these questions before by you or Informer can't remember. If he doesn't answer you and you genuinely want to know let me know, I remember his answers from the first time.

Go for it. That line and accusation is getting tiring.

Thx

Anomaly is a 27 year currently employed AMT from UA and is not a Union representative other than being a current represented dues paying member of the IBT. He is here contrary to popular belief to help AA AMTs to make an Informed decision not to choose AMFA as our representation on grounds of being a former AMFA represented member until they were sent packing so to speak from UA property.

I think I have all that right if not I stand corrected Anomaly. You'll have to excuse some here for the short memory. I think their heads are so full of AMFA and Conspiracy Theory type information they tend to forget the trivial things from time to time. Oh yeh and no problem it is the least I can do for the truly helpful information you share here.

Thanks.

If I had to explain that again I think I would have unloaded a box of kittens on to a busy freeway.

Anomaly, you mentioned "unions" helping AMFA during their strike at NWA. The only one I'm aware of is the UAW. Are there more?
