Ground Crew to Picket Southwest

[Tanker Clown]

You guys lost money last quarter. What make you think they can even afford COLA. It's because of this type of talk that they are pondering furloughs.

It still is one of the best gigs in town. No doubt about it.

That's the spirit. 27 for negotiating committee chairman. (massive sarcasm intended)

PIPE

Is the 30+ year honeymoon over?

Luckilly the honeymoon is over for about 3% of the plot group. These guys just want to burn the place down. If you talk to 97% of the pilots everyone is HAPPY! I think a company that has never furloughed anyone and that is decreasing capacity by atleast 5% in Jan and Feb and still no f word deserves a little bit of respect!.

So the honeymoon is not over.....

No loadmasters on a tanker you Retard130. BTW, any luck finding out my name?

Good luck with your contract. Do the right thing. Take concessions and ensure the long term servival of SWA. I need that retirement job.

That's not nice. Especially coming from a guy so close to the bottom right when you're on the edge of furloughs.

These guys are going to picket themselves right out of a job. Just ask the UAW how good a union is. If mgt didn't have to deal with all the excessive union contracts the big three would be on a level with their foreign peers. Now they face liquidation. Look how bad the airline industry is hurting now. If they didn't have to deal with all these unions, they'd probably be a lot closer to profitability.

And let me guess you think George Bush is one of greatest presidents ever.....Are you a joke or what. Why don't we all just work for free. Your right why should we have the right to form a union and negotiate fair work rules and pay.

Look at the military. No union contract. We are well paid and have a great retirement plan. And to top it all off, we're the best in the world. Maybe the 121 folks should try and mirror what we do in the military.

Last time I checked he US military has not ever turned a profit. Don't even get me started on waste in the Armed Services.
If you want the 121 folks to do the same as the military, then lets start by being 100% goverment supported.

Is this the first time any labor group has picketed WN?

Oh so you a flight engineer?

my bad...do you like the lifestyle your plane has...always taking it from behind?

 

[Tanker Clown]

Good one RetardedDog. PM when you figure out who I am. A guy PM'd me saying you were trying to figure out who I am. I'll introduce myself to you in the crew lounge after I get hired.

No, the flight attendants did during their last contract.
