You gotta have a 16 incher just to keep some distance from your avatar. Man o man pick a hot chick.

 

No kidding.

 

I just shared the last page of this thread with my wife. She asked me if we are, in fact, adults. She obviously doesn't understand....

 

Yeah, my wife doesn't get it either. The obvious answer is "we're not."

 

No, we are pilots.

 

Until there's another merger rumor or an advanced entitlement or something, college football and the juvenile humor are the only things that keep this thread interesting.

Where's that bunny rabbit with things on his head?

 

I wasn't speaking in favor of or against the FA union. I was merely stating that if the union gets to mobilize for their cause, the company should have every right to as well.

Right off the AFA website:

Delta management compromised the secrecy of the ballot by urging flight attendants to vote on company-controlled work computers that could track whether they clicked on the NMB's internet voting site. In addition, hundreds of Delta/Northwest flight attendants have reported coercive and unfair methods used by management to influence the results of the recent union election. Feedback includes reports of the company's anti-AFA literature, excessive supervisor surveillance and meddling, and repeated supervisor phone calls to flight attendant homes telling them to vote.

I do find it rather odd that one of the AFAs claims is that the company may have compromised the privacy of the votes by advocating that the voting be conducted on company computers. The AFA is a staunch supporter of the Employee Free Choice Act which would have implemented the "card check" voting method. Bizarre to say the least. If the EFCA was ever passed the whole concept of private voting would be thrown out the window.

 

Anyone else get a deffective FCCQ CD? I keep getting the HVC video, over and over, but I can't find the "HVE" section, you know, where they talk about the 17% or so employees that are involved in 100% of the flights...

 

AFA is upset because after they went to all of the trouble to change the rules of the game the company read the new rules and changed tactics - how dare they!

In all seriousness, this is akin to the various get of the vote campaigns you see during election cycles where folks call and ask you to vote without telling you whom to vote for. If this is the best the AFA can find to claim intimidation they have no case. Not saying they won't win with the now stacked NMB but in a legitimate venue this is frivolous and ultimately is costing the membership of the AFA at DAL $$$.

 

How mean! Now how do you think you'd make her feel if she knew you didn't think she was hot!!! She's got some serious abs...I mean a six-pack of kegs!
