Oh, please... that's horsesh*t and you know it. You step down and there will be 10 lined up to take your place without you even asking. But we all know you don't get to be in a position like you without being buddy-buddy with someone.

That was done a long time ago with your DA.

Very little 401k matching. No jumpseat....Shall I go on?

We fixed a lot of that in contract 98 and yes we negotiated partial reimbursement because that polled heavy after the first TA was shot down.

Any other axes to grind?
A lot of people did not pay for jobs back then. You did.

I have no problem stepping up to the plate and doing my "service." What I do know is that there are qualified people to handle the negotiations in our group that is probably better than me.

This is the real reason we aren't getting anywhere. ASA guys look at the posts of CA tony. Do you want someone like this representing you? All he does is insult, belittle and blame. With people like tony on the ASA NC, I wouldn't trust any of the communication you are receiving. He is a divider, not a leader.

Well put! ASA guys take action! By removing this guy and others like him we just might see some progress.... Progress that benefits BOTH sides. You MUST get this guy off of your negotiating team..

Ross, just about anyone could do better than the jokers y'all have right now. Please consider getting involved.
