90-Day Strike Warning
#41
Went back through the SWAPA archives because I was curious also. Announced a AIP Aug 29, 2016. TA vote ended Nov 7, 2016.
2 mos and 9 days from AIP to Board Approval to Road Shows to Vote Ending.
IF we follow that timeline and an agreement is announced in Nov, it would get the company through the holiday season before the vote result is known.

Whatever it takes to get a deal done. I’m debt free finally except for the house so the next couple months is stockpiling money for a strike.

I don't know. My guess is that the company moves just enough to make it look like there's no impasse, NMB says keep negotiating or puts us on ice for 6 months. I just don't see them releasing us Nov 30. I hope I'm wrong.

and then the doctor said..”RETRO? Damn near killed him!” Or something like that.

I bet SWA won’t have any problems moving its jets either. Plenty will be willing to save SWAPA from being sued.

the company cannot afford to keep dragging this out. Investors are getting antsy.
Id think after nearly 4 yrs the nmb will come to the conclusion that it's never getting done.
look at ups drivers, they threatened strike and now people are lining up to work for them because they have the high6pay by far, health care workers went on strike for 3 days, auto workers are about to get a great deal also. I think the country is tired of corporations making all the money and squeezing the little guy. The mood has shifted.
I'm glad people are building their strike fund but AA stuck in 2005? And it lasted 14 min.
I doubt at 60 million a day sw will allow a strike to happen.
We need to call the bluff and get everything we want.

I dont buy this whole putting in ice thing. It's the boogeyman that nobody ever sees.

Even if they did, what’s it going to cost them to do that for even a week?! It’s a storm that we can weather a lot better than them. So let’s stand strong and get what we deserve. It’s ours to lose.
