Management can’t stop blaming us and our “unscheduled absences” for their own poor schedule and operational planning.

Now they’re sending implicit threats about trying to dissuade us from legitimate use of FMLA in a recent email. In their words:

Labor Day weekend is a time to celebrate the American worker’s accomplishments of the past, but also an opportunity to recommit ourselves to improving our own future.

I never realized how important my union was until I lost it.

I started my career at Northwest in 2007, and I flew under a contract and AFA protection until we lost our union in November of 2010.

At the time, Delta told us, “Give it a year, and you won’t want your union back.”

A contract is about putting maximum control and flexibility in the hands of us as Flight Attendants, not management.

“I could see maybe some things that I thought weren’t right, but I was willing to overlook them because I thought things were so good. And those are things that I’m not willing to overlook anymore.”
