Anyone with the right training can do a specific job. However if only a small percentage of those men and women of that profession start doing their job for less than is the industry minimum, we will all suffer. Yes, I am aware that GoJetters make the industry average for a 70-seater. But it's not all about pay.
GoJetters:
What day did you start paying dues at your company?
Was it the day you passed your checkride?
What happens if you decide not to pay your dues?
And what kind of protection does the Teamsters offer you?
Are you aware that some of your union representatives are management "yes-men," some of who originally abandoned Trans States Airlines?
Didn't a few of your previous union reps just get fired?
Why was that?
Did they do something wrong?
Do you currently have an open line of communication with our Union reps?
Wouldn't it be in both our interests to help each other out?
I challenge any GoJetter to step up to the plate and answer all of those questions. Honestly. Factually.
Why would they do that when they felt comfortable taking your job in the first place? Yea like they're going to help you get your job back. No, When AMR is dropped, staple the gojetters to the bottom. They're bound to say yes anyways just as long as they get to keep flying, remember they're only TSA contract workers brought in to undermine the TSA cba.
