Unhappy

First the USAirways screw up. Then AA pass them out to become #1. Then the airline loses $2billion in a year. Thats $2,000,000,000,000.00!!. .Now the IAM say they want more than 23% pay raises! . .Before everyone stampedes to jump all over me here, let me say that I think that this is not a good time to be looking for the scheckles!!!. .Its like going to dad for pocket money after the wife left, the house was repossesed, the daughter got up the spout, the job let him go and his dog ran away.. .The IAM should look at history and Eastern Airlines. UAL are falling from grace and the unions should really consider their battles. I am not saying that they do not deserve a pay raise, I am sure they do. I am saying that there is a better time to bleed the scrawny calf!!!!!. .The IAM will be the masters of their own destiny... <img src="confused.gif" border="0"> <img src="confused.gif" border="0"> <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
