The true statement would be I think unions are a great thing and I'm trying to learn what the differences are. I'm searching wikipedia too.
***EDIT***
From wikipedia.
International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT), formerly known by the name International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen and Helpers of America, is one of the largest labor unions in the United States.
Don't all unions strive for the same thing? Are the teamsters somehow screwing the ALPA guys because they are doing it seperatly? In the case of GoJets where they are a new upstarting company how is it the teamsters go involved to start with? Were they asked by the company? Why didn't APLA talk to those pilots? How did one and not the other end up representing the pilots there?
Here it says the teamsters do continental but I thought they were ALPA.... I'm confused. Sorry if this has been discussed. I just read yalls thoughts everyday and don't always follow.
