Joe,
Since you mentioned the 10k .... Does anyone have a copy of that thing...I remember scab captains waving it in my face... It may not have used the bankruptcy word but it was pretty specific about the "future without concessions" All total BS posturing in my opinion... and did not sway my "NO" vote... |

I don’t have any copies but I know for a fact the word “bankruptcy” was NEVER used except in internal (company/ALPA) communications. The IAH based scab contingent was instrumental in ramming through that POS contract.

Without the IAH scab reps and Panarello, this thing would have had a much harder time coming to fruition. Since GUM and CLE, as well as the FI’s, usually voted in lockstep with the IAH scab contingent- it was game over. |

No we are talking 2004-05. I always consult seeking alpha for ‘objective measures’ on a company. :rolleyes:

By the way it wasn’t just the scabs. Randy Newman EWR FO rep voted for and was selling that POS too. FYI don’t forget Stivila ave Muir both on NC and both NC Chairmam during that POS contract negotiation cycle. Both picked by Fred to work for him and negotiate against ALPA. Both in flight ops management today and Rick is just below Howard. After POS consessionary contract passed and Ken Cooper’s BS was exposed he retired from ALPA. He was a very weak negotiating attorney. |

I believe the National attorney was Ken Cooper. He was buddies with Stivila and they vacationed together too on a cruise during negotiations.

Jackson Martin did just as much, if not more, damage than those two *****s when he went to work for Abbott too.

Well he’s back on the line, Howard fired him. Not the same with the other two.
I heard he is just trying to keep his head down, complete douchebag. |
I’d rather have our contract than their representation.
