[QUOTE="airbusfxr, post: 545104, member: 11914"] The RLA is an old law that protects companies from job actions. The official term was "Railway Labor of 1929", to keep railroads and interstate commerce moving during disputes. The aircraft mechanics at UPS have not had a raise or benefit enhancement since 2005 thanks to the RLA of 1929. We have seen the economy fall and will not be able to recoup our money that UPS owes us due to this law. At the end of 2009, I will have worked over 8k hours at pay and benefits from a contract that was signed in 2001. This law only benefits fat cat companies that hold employees hostage for years and in the end only pay pennies on the dollar owed. How many Grade 20s would work for 4 years without an increase? How many fat cat div mgrs would work for 4 years without an increase? Well since I have been stuck at a 2001 contract agreement Grade 20s have had 3, 200% raises, and that was just the last 3 years.
