Take your own advise Nut Driver, peel off from SWA and the union you hate, and get on those wide body freighters at UPS. You could show 'em how it's done and get back as a Reamster Business Agent. Your a sniveling mud puddle wet mess waiting a paltry 5 years at SWA for your "pay raise". this with full benefits and nearly full industry leading pay, and you call me BITTER? It's no wonder the Reamsters got bounced out of SWA with your weak knee'd type of industrial unionism.Sounds like you should have left American 16 years ago, and got on with SWA, UPS, or Fed Ex, heck with all your experience you would be a shoe in.But now you are just bitter.Fighting, fighting what, Airlines care about F/A and pilots, they don't care about ramp or maintenance. Tell me what was the last mechanics strike at American? If AMFA did what they did at Northwest, and everyone was replaced then what would say Hackboy, man they faught the fight! A decent union tries to work with the company, if they think they can win they fight, when they know they can't they settle.Our guys are drunk on their overtime, SWA knows this. All is we need is the F/A 's get their second contract why we sit here. Man imagine that, the TWU smarter than AMFA, that would be sweet. I leave you to your bitter self.
Then we have the same 'ol Northwest retread ad nauseam. So once again, the NWA management was to blame as we all know living in reality, the members had the balls to walk as the AMFA members voted to do. There was no other choice (well for some it was being a scab). I have friends that worked there, and so I know how it was. To say otherwise is cowardice and a cheap shot. But we all know that's how some low life's are in the gutter.
