Oh, he isn’t LYING, what he’s doing is making a statement against interest so that in a civil suit by new hires as a group their getting damages from the union is a slam-dunk.Same for complaining to the NLRB that your union has failed in its obligation to treat you fairly.

Seriously, would you want to take this to a hearing AFTER the alleged public statement? It’s the epitome of unequal representation to benefit people who don’t personally suffer from it. It’s the kind of thing where you lose in the court of public opinion even if you sneak it by in a court of law on some technicality.
Enforcing the contract my @$$. Does anyone seriously believe if the company unilaterally declared 25% profit sharing the union would be fighting to ‘enforce the contract’ rather than taking the money and running? I say, take everything they give you AND everything you can negotiate, FOR EVERYBODY.

We are not responsible to GIVE ANYTHING….. if the company wants to house and pay newbies that’s on THEM
So if and when joint CBA negotiations happens, and the company even mentions credit for new hire pay or motels, they can POUND SAND!

The first line in the main body paragraph you attached states, Your union has the duty to represent all employees. Not much of a technicality, this is where the argument simply falls flat on its face. The company (at least as of a 2 weeks ago) has not been willing to meet with the union on this subject, thus the union has been unable to represent them. Just stating law vs public opinion...nothing unequal here when they aren't even contacted before the company implements changes to the CBA.
The union SHOULD object. That’s their job - to represent everyone. A smart/crafty union will try and parlay the new benefit of the few for everyone. It’s not a slam dunk as there’s lots of moving parts and unknowns but step one is complain that the benefit wasn’t discussed prior, wasn’t coordinated amongst all employees and is unfair to other segments of labor.
Let the union do their job….

Interview + logbook
Is the logbook check just for those without ATP licenses or does everybody have to go thru that drama?
If so is it a general look or do you have to go there with all your checkrides, PC’s etc.. highlighted for review?
