However, to the extent the AFA has elected militant and combative leaders, UA management has only themselves to blame. I can't recall one substantive or even superficial bone thrown to the front line employees while at the same time, management has gorged themselves at the trough.
Amen. It's not just going to be at United this summer either, American's contracts are up this summer also. I don't blame the employees for being pissed. They see that they have taken massive pay and benefit cuts; while executives have the boards they sit on grant them massive bonuses.
Good luck to everyone this summer, I think we are going to need it.
