What I said is that the FA's don't need a union, we negotiated profit sharing during LOA 51 when we lost our retirement. The company then turned around and gave it to the entire workforce. You see my original point..they don't need a union.

As for excluding any group that is a management decision. The reason management gave everyone profit sharing was because there was no profit. Look at what they are doing now (C2012). Coming to us to give up part of our profit sharing so they can turn around and take it from the other folks without them picking up pitchforks and threatening unionizing. That check was getting pretty sizable.
