Just a “heads up”....
Well, the Supreme Court ruled in Epic Systems Corp vs. Lewis (slip op) No. 16-285 the other day. Not good for labor unions. Class action not available to those who work for a company that advises you when you come to work class action in court not available to you and individual arbitration’s are the only way to address overtime pay (for example).
Next up: Janus v. AFSCME employees. I know you guys/gals don’t care what I have to say. You don’t care which way the change of fortunes blowing. Just get paid, go home and take care of the wife and kids. Government and the courts will take care of it for you. HA!
The list of union corruption is great. More and more union leaders are being charged with illegal activities and list keeps growing. I think the DCA vice chairman’s letter should serve as a warning. Evidently not.
There is a way to fix it but, unfortunately, the boards and CnR are your only recourse at this time. I know, I know....the “union hater” is back to many of you. But answer me this.....after almost forty years of deregulation, has your union plight really improved all that much?

What a moron. What do you want, no union? No contract? How quickly do you want to see what little we have in the way of work rules gone?
Every single work rule, every single contract item, pay, vacation, time off, rest requirements, any item you can think of is the result of over 80years of pilot unions working to preserve job quality and safety.
If you think you can do that on your own then you are even more stupid than you appear.
