4 years of feet dragging by managment. Unwillingness to negotatiate in good faith wanting to keep pretty much the contract as is (2003). There are to many etc.'s to even name.
When does the vote close?
The NMB release you guys to self-help? What's been the timeline up to this point?
Good luck. Hopefully the Teamsters won't sell you guys out like they did us.
Excuse my ignorance, but what does NMB stand for?
You know what is needed? A Hunger Strike. I nominate Jtrain, Surreal and ATN_Pilot.
I'm not talking about one of these modern hunger strikes where people get a little weak and then have a sandwich either, I'm talking about a full-on, Irish Republican Army/Bobby Sands hunger strike until the striker croaks. That would be a stark message to airline management. I'm in favor of this. Jtrain and Surreal are scrawny so it wouldn't take too long for them, but I think ATN might last through Christmas.
May we drink?

WacoFan said:Gotta get back to you on that - not sure if Bobby Sands was allowed water or not. Certainly not drink anything fun, it would prolong your lifes/and or put less pressure on management.
You mean your local leadership, of course?
You know, you're really - already - starting to take the fun out of this. Prohibition ended long ago, I will agree to a hunger strike...but NOT and alcohol strike! And I'm quite confident that I speak collectively for John and Todd.
