[QUOTE="fedupped, post: 1267378, member: 46366"] Lets talk about what would happen if we were to unionize. Negotiations would start where we are now. Nothing would be "lost". A majority vote would decide to accept or deny any new contract offered. A strike of sorts is not automatic. A continuance of work at old pay and benefits is more likely while negotiations continue. At some point, as peak nears, there might be a need to grasp the attention of Mgmnt and take a few days off to express our unhappiness with working conditions. The old seniors have nothing to lose. We are staring at retirement and are basically day laborers at this point. Our traditional pension and "cash" pension are guaranteed. Bring it on. And rookie, do it for yourself. Have you signed a card? I have. Get to that magic percentage.."the NLRA standard of a majority of the valid ballots cast will be used in RLA representation elections." ..and you can start taking care of your self. Enjoy that .5 % 6 month bonus this week? As the stock hovers at 140 and directors cash in on stock options. Choice is yours. Sign the card, mail it in. Sign the card and negotiate [I]your [/I]future. In 5 years half of the old timers will be gone and you will still be 2 bucks over a new hire. Who to bitch at then? Sign the card, mail it in. Its anonymous. That is unless your mgmnt spreading FUD.
