I think you forgot to clear that post with your bosses alfa.
The inflatable rat is not about data.
Public relations has an effect on customers, Wall Street, the stock price, etc. etc. That gets management's attention.
I think you were probably just being argumentative. But if you really believe what you typed then you need to look up from your charts and bar graphs and get a clue.
Lee Moak hurt us with his comments. His whole philosophy of labor relations is a disaster.
The sooner we see the back of him the better off we will be. Then we can set about the task of getting his minions off the MEC.
The PUB events are the essence of bottom up governing. Find out what the pilots are thinking and make sure they have the same knowledge base as the union leaders. They are not PR events. It is funny that you posted those pictures, how many of those did you attend? I was at all three. The woman and kids in those pictures are Buzz Hazzard's wife and children, one of the Moak minions in your eyes no doubt. They all flew down to Atlanta to attend the picketing and so did I. If you look carefully through those pictures you will find them populated by the very people you attack so mindlessly. So please spare me your sanctimonious crap. Times change and we live in different times which require different tactics. Adapt or die. You seem to want to live back in another era. Move along, it's time to grow up now and act like an adult.
That magazine article was not worth a warm bucket of spit and if you can't realize that then your negotiations strategy is equally worthless. I am sorry but the results of the people who think like you have been disastrous. And yet you cling to those tactics like some football coach trying to run a single wing offense. It is absolutely incredible that people like you can't seem to change.
Numbers don't lie:
