franky baby
my comment on some 49ers being offered their job back and your reply just serve to prove my point....... it depends whose spin you choose to believe the most!
likewise, in the initial post the AOA are now claiming that the company hasn't spoken to them since 1999. (thats just spin.... does spoken, include all contact? surely not talks about talks then?)
so much spin its not hard to get dizzy.
fan man........ you speak sense. no hope for you here.
bm###: elections and agm on 9 july. the emotive 1st anniversary of the firings!
union and non-union alike, support the 49ers. the company was/is morally wrong (although legally [at least in china] in the right)
the only question that need be asked is "are the 49ers better off 12 months down the track?" answer no! and how could they be if the company and aoa wont talk. talks would start tomorrow if the aoa drop this silly ban......... result: union is unified, 49ers go through DGP. some will be re-employed.
the current committee has failed to achieve any gains in the last 12mths, it is failing the 49ers. 19th century union tactics will not work in the face of a union bust. the aoa is helping the company by dividing the pilot body with this ban (a ban no one, at any time, has effectively justified)..........and divided they will fall.
lets get it together lads/ladies. vote to drop the ban, vote to unify the union/pilot body.....vote to do something effective for the 49ers...... vote to talk to the company.
nudger: stop being so paranoid! how do you get out of bed? maybe the freehills boys are spying on you too! the might be bugging you cornflakes. watch out man, they're everywhere. (i'm not saying break the ban...... i am saying the ban is self defeating.)
perhaps time for a poll: who at cathay has the balls to strike? to risk it all in support of their yellow ribboned fallen colleagues....no-one! so stop the mightier than thou speeches and lets be constructive not devisive
