Is it the proper role of a union to leverage outsourcing ? If so, who's job gets outsourced and how do we decide while affording all members equal representation ? After we sell our flying, then what?
The bottom line of my rant is that we seriously undermined our own bargaining position and there wasn't a peep from anyone.
Ok, I stepped on my crank with my last post. The last thing I want to do is be a part of "that crowd". I guess my point was lost with the last sentence.
Thinking like management......they found a way to outsource cheaper and force others to lower their rates upon renewal. That's all I really wanted anyone to get from my post.
I have voted against every increase in rj size and quantity my whole career. Outsourcing has hurt my career. I just think you may be entering black helicopter territory with that one post. Although having someone who thinks of extremes helps bring attention to an issue most would never contemplate. Kudos to you.
