WN Mechanics seek mediation

And guess what stupid our baggage handlers, and ramp agents have a contract, and we don't, but keep turning those wrenches for your same money since 2012.

Irrelevant. Is it all you have to attack instead of addressing the issue? You’ve been waiting (It’s your lives) for 5 1/2 years now. My question is how many more years are you willing to wait never having anything to vote on to send a REAL message to the Company or the Government what you’re willing or not willing to accept in YOUR LIVES?

I think even a Burger flipper at McDonalds would prefer to be able to make a choice instead of going through the type of BS your dumb ass is obviously willing to put up with.

So do your Flight Attendants And Pilots. All contracts at SWA if I’m right were now settled well over a year ago.

Except AMFA.

You two experts of the hypothetical must not have anyone in the real world who wants to listen to your yowling, so you go to internetland. We will eventually get a contract and I will continue to turn wrenches to the best of my ability.

You could have at least a TA NOW. It doesn’t mean that you’re going to vote yes or no on it but at least you ALL will know what you’ll take from Management and not take.

UAL Mechanics got a TA and told both the Company and IBT to shove it on what they really wanted. They voted no by 95% and soon after got a the deal they liked that they passed.

WTF are you guys so afraid of to send the same message to Management??????? (Or are you afraid of yourselves)

BTW there’s no hypothetical. It’s been 5 1/2 years for you. That’s called a FACT.

I thought it was evident to all why there has been no T/A. Industrial unions such as the TWU, IAM and Teamsters will bring a P.O.S./ concessionary T/A back to their members to vote on. AMFA won't. You go ahead though and keep believing the TWU has your best interests in mind.....sucker.

Then you’re NEVER going to get a TA because your demands come from Fantasyland.....fool.

Yeah all the other groups at SWA are suckers too. The negotiating committee and the ALRs have admitted whatever comes out, will pass, they are afraid of that. Because whenever everybody realize they had no contract for 6 years, and what we finally got wasn't that great, they will be replaced and actually have to work.

Hey Dippy Dave, how about 15 years and counting!? You talk like you have something to say , but your breath smells like TWu sewer gas and Dougie's spunk.

You know how you constantly forget the TWu set the bar in bankruptcy type concessions in 2003, with no bankruptcy filed...only the treat and the TWu folded.

15 years Dippy Dave.... except when your buddy DUI Doug gave the beleaguered TWu/IAm Ass a raise...and you bought your V6 Mustang thanks to Dougie and his generosity.
---Here, eat some crow---
13 years of 17.5% pay cut (Thanks Dougie)
15 years 5 holidays at time and one half
15 years no double time
15 years 5 sick days a year
15 years 5.5% 401k match
15 years and 5 weeks max VC
15 years of half pay sick time (well not you, only the AMTs)
15 years of a frozen pension
The worst medical in the industry majors since 1990, "Flex Benefits"

SWA and AMFA have a fully intact contract, they have suffered nothing compared to the TWu sellout of 2003. They have lead the industry in pay and benefits for many years, the TWu never has, and probably from what I heard at the last 591 Union Meeting, we never will. "WE ARE STILL MILES APART".

I know this will hurt your pea brain badly, but your beloved TWu has used SSMP in a few lawsuits of our own!!! The TWu!!! SSMP!!! OUCHY.... I have the case numbers if you need them.

Dippy Dave, return to the bag room, your out of your LANE.

PS Dippy, how come you didn't come to the TWu DFW Protests at HDQ and Terminal D last summer??? Some of our MIA AMTs were there, and even AMFA came to one. Too busy? Had to wash the V6 Mustang?

Some TWu union man you are, loud mouth....no action.

How quickly he seems to forget.
One of the cases you speak of was the return of Dave wasn't it? With full back pay? He refused to use the TWU's attorneys and hired AMFA's lawyers to get his job back. I remember that like it was yesterday.
And yes AMFA did show up to support the DFW protest with you guys and they were invited to come I do believe as well as some mechanics from SWA showed up in other cities as well.

Just as 100% expected. Go after the SSM&P Lawyers and look who jumps right in swinging his baseball bat to the head like a POS low life gangster.

BTW got you on ignore tough guy and ain’t reading all your swill. Just looked to see who the smell was coming from and nothin more.

Then how did you know he was "swinging a bat like a gangster?" You lie. You read every bit of it, hence your response. You claim you did not read it because he is 100% correctamendo and you hate it when he makes you look so wrong. Truth will set you free weez...

I want one of these zombies to give me just one REALLY GOOD reason that SWA Management is going to feel their arms are being twisted behind their backs and they have zero choice but to acquiesce and capitulate to the demands of Fedex plus wages and FULL retro/ plus additional work to grow the ranks?

Wow when I think about all the compounding economic losses you guys have given up waiting for Seeham (This is not about AMFA) to get you a deal it boggles the mind.

They can't they are too busy sniffing glue.

You are way out of touch. Not one NC member has said as you have claimed above and you know this. Name the names of the people you "claim" are saying current offer from co. would pass. You are so full of crap. YOU are doing the work for the company coming on here and stating these lies. YOU are trying to make the NC look weak for the co. YOU are not a good union man trying to pit other members against the nego. cmte. YOU have fallen for the propaganda of the co. just like the little puppet you are. I see now why your ALR refuses to return your calls, because you are 100% company man with puppet strings under full control of what the company propaganda machine has controlled you...

 

[swamt]

So do your Flight Attendants And Pilots. All contracts at SWA if I’m right were now settled well over a year ago.

Except AMFA.

That's because AMFA does not just simply agree with all the co. demands like your union has for well over 30 plus years.
