ALPA Unit 1 Update

[JoeMerchant]

What's there to spin? I've always said that I support our staff 100%.

So ALPA is acting like management? Why don't you attack ALPA like you attack management? You can't win this one...Either way, this makes ALPA look bad...

I really want to hear Rez's spin on this one...

I've never said that ALPA looks good on this one. I don't think either side looks good. This is something that makes all of us look bad, and I hope it gets resolved sooner rather than later. Our staff deserves it, and so do our members.

So why is ALPA acting like management? Are things not as simple as the union chest thumpers like to make them? Are costs an issue or aren't they? Why aren't you attacking ALPA like you do Air Tran management?

What do you mean by "neither side looks good"?

Joe, I think you know that I can't really get into details. Suffice it to say that I think both ALPA and Unit 1 have made mistakes throughout this process, and I hope to see it resolved soon.

Spoken like a true ALPA EVP....You are quite the politician....

This is exactly why unions aren't supported by the majority of people....They can't even negotiate with themselves...

I do find it interesting that an ALPA EVP thinks BOTH sides have made mistakes....This is getting better by the day....

So what's the take on all of this from an EVP of the rjdc? I mean you girls were so successful in YOUR suit eh?
You know the old rjdc saying, if you can't join them, sue em!
Could you recommend Haber to them, he got so much $$ for you :crying::crying:. Just how did you spend all those millions?:laugh:

For anyone who has been following the dispute between ALPA and its Unit 1 employees.

Shock. ALPA fleecing its own. Who'd a thunk it.

Even the carnies (the folks who live and work in the traveling carnival culture) know that shady deals are the way of life, but they never slick another carny.

You might want to worry about your own house before worrying about ours. You know, with your officers beating up each other in the office and sending each other to the hospital and all.

Maybe you could post a link for us that points out how a union other than ALPA was found guilty of violating the National Labor Relations Act.

ALPA is quickly approaching the same fate as old, stingy, self-important, corrupt dictators in the middle East.

To be clear, ALPA hasn't been found guilty. An ALJ made a recommendation on a ruling to the NLRB. The NLRB makes the decision about whether ALPA was guilty or not, and even that is appealable to the courts.

Is your officer out of the hospital yet? I would think that assault is a little more serious than a possible NLRA violation.
