Union 101: If an employee is under performing, put him on a seniority list and pay him forever.

Management 102: The union doesn't hire employees. Management does.

Here's your pop quiz. It is an essay question:

Why would management hire a person who would under perform?
 
It may be a big suprise, but the union (NJASAP) has little to no influence on who is hired or not. It would be nice if experiencved pilots were allowed to screen applicants, but alas-management knows better.
 
Classic Union Behavior

True dat, BF. The only companies that have a union are the ones that deserve it. If management would only treat their workforce fairly, there would be no catalyst for organizing. After working for many non-union companies and one union company, I felt much better in the union. Management is always an organized unit when it comes to employee relations. It only makes sense for pilots to have a unified voice also. The challenge for the unions is to operate in such a way that they reasonably protect employees from management without incurring necessary costs to the company. I was fortunate to work in an atmosphere in which those principles applied.

This article was posted this morning and is a classic example of a company being harrassed by a union that has historically not needed unions. You state above that the only companies that have a union are the ones that deserve it. That's a BS line, and this provies it.

There is no catalyst for unions at Delta, the only catalyst are union members that don't want to see their unions lose the income from thier union dues. Strong arm tactics such as this are disgusting and are never exhibited in a non union enviorment.


All of you think that this behavior is fine. This unsolicited contact is a classic union tactic. I hope the folks call the police as suggested.
