what has your union done >>>>>

Not sure if you realize it but our beloved America is not friendly to the working man.... especially since 2000.quote]

I think we all recognize this point. It also highlights the fact that whoever has the money writes the rules. My question is: Why hasn't ALPA had any big strikes lately to get the attention of management? To me, it seems if you take the ability to strike away from a Union (through whichever bankruptcy laws apply) then you're basically castrating the Union. They can "slow" down the inevitable paycuts and work increases, but isn't a Union supposed to have goals to attain for the workers?

Big strikes? If you mean collectively then and nationawide SOS is a big ? They have been determined unworkable in the past....

In addition, pilots have been voting to save thier jobs thru concessionary TA's. I don't think you'll see a big strike......

Supposivley its getting better anyway..... we will see....
