Led by District 141 Organizers Billy Kline, Fran Paci, Rick Russo, and Gene Beatty, AirTran workers made the right decision to unite. Dave Lehive and Mike Mancini were the professionals behind the web and videos. District 141 Director of Organizing, Tim Nelson said, “AirTran put on a formidable anti-union campaign. Airline executives hired Ford & Harrison, the top union-busting law firm. But our new Brothers and Sisters at Airtran were determined. They were ready to join the world’s largest airline union. AirTran Members saw their battle for representation right through to the end. Steve Barfield, Atlanta Crew Member, said, “the teamsters walked away from us. The teamsters didn’t return phone calls. But the IAM stuck with us and provided us with the resources to get this done.” AirTran will become a subsidiary of Southwest Airlines sometime after May 1. Southwest says it will operate AirTran as a separate brand for at least the next eighteen to twenty four months.

MEMBER TALK
Identical twins, identical jobs; Un-identical pay and benefits
“Teresa also had a company-funded pension plan and I didn’t,” Monica added.
This is a tale of twin sisters who worked as Passenger Service employees for United Airlines in the 1990s. At the time, Teresa and Monica Dean weren’t represented by the IAM. “We worked side by side in Denver on the same team and same shift, taking international reservations,” Teresa said. “We had similar educational and work experience in the hospitality industry and we both worked in the same job for a phone company,” Monica recalled. But because they did not have union representation and a union contract, management could do whatever it wanted. So Teresa earned $9.75 an hour and could get raises every six months. Meanwhile, Monica earned only $7.64 an hour for the same work and got raises only when the company felt like giving them to her. “It wasn’t just the wage disparity,” Teresa said. “I could have accrued 125 sick days but Monica maxed out at 60.
“We asked ourselves who will best represent us and we felt it was the IAM,” Teresa said. “All of us in the airline transportation industry need the kind of independent, democratic representation only a strong union can provide,” Monica said. “And the IAM is that union.” Both said that having a union improved their wages and benefits, as well as the way they were treated. “With a union, you have to be treated fairly and with respect,” Teresa said. “Management cannot change rules on a whim,” Monica said. “And we have a grievance procedure to address work problems.” Both sisters now work in Reservations at United in Detroit, and their pay and benefits are equal. “Having the IAM represent us is the best thing that could have happened to us,” Teresa said. “The job protection alone is reason enough to vote union,” Monica said. “Before the union I saw many people unjustly fired and you never saw them again.
Equal pay, equal benefits for equal work A union contract guarantees it “I had company-paid medical and dental insurance but Monica had to contribute to her insurance premiums. And I got seven weeks of vacation while she only got four.

The seemingly arbitrary disparity in pay and benefits was one reason both sisters strongly supported the IAM in a representation election in 1998.
“With a union you have someone to fight for you.” Both urged everyone at Continental to vote for the IAM. “You’ll be getting a strong union to support you,” they said.

ORGANIZING
Retiree’s experience with other union: Cut the horses Jensen Chun, a retired ramp service lead, has a question for United and Continental employees. “Why on Earth would anyone vote for a union other than the IAM?” “The IAM knows the airline industry better than anyone else,” Chun said. “For the sake of its Members, this union has stood up to the carriers and fought the battles.” Chun was a teamster when he began working for UPS as a ramp loader in 1975. He left UPS in 1978 to work for PSA in SFO, which at the time was also represented by the teamsters. “I was there in the late 1980s when PSA merged with US Airways and later with Piedmont,” Chun recalled. “In the representation election that followed, the teamsters were voted out.” “Not surprisingly, as soon as the union was out, the carrier drastically cut staff. Management cut the entire West Coast operation, laying off people left and right. They also eliminated the pension plan and cut holidays.” Chun said it didn’t surprise him that those things happened after the union was gone. “Workers need a voice,” he said. “Unions are the only way to have a say on the job. “After that election, there was no one who had our back. Everyone just did what he or she was told because there was no one to call if you had a problem.” With Chun’s experience in both unions, there is no doubt in his mind which union to choose. “The airline industry is so sensitive,” he said, “you have to go with the union that is battle tested. That union is the IAM.” Chun said that the IAM, unlike some unions, provides training for its stewards that enables them to be highly effective. “I was a steward and committee chair for eight years prior to my retirement,” Chun said. “The IAM doesn’t just appoint stewards in name only, it gives them the training they need to do the job.” Chun also praised the IAM’s defined-benefit pension plan. “There is nothing like having a real pension when you retire,” he said. “A defined-benefit pension plan is becoming increasingly difficult to find these days. And the IAM has just such a plan for its Members. The teamsters don’t.” “It’s one more reason to vote IAM.”

Chicago Committee Member to Continental employees:
“This was a great airline that was built on pride and what happened to it was a shame.” Kush said those employees at Continental who were represented by a union fared better in the reorganization that followed the bankruptcy.
“You need to be in the IAM.” Working at both union and non-union jobs has given Chicago Committee Member Peter Kush firsthand knowledge about the differences. Kush is an emergency procedures instructor for United at ORD-TK. He began his career in the industry in 1970 as a nonunion ticket agent at Continental. “I was there in 1982 when Frank Lorenzo took over,” Kush recalled. “By September of ’83 we were in bankruptcy. He ran it into the ground.” Kush said that immediately after the bankruptcy, most employees were told to leave. Others walked off the job. “A few weeks after I left, I got a call from my former supervisor,” he said. “He asked me to come back to my old job. He said the new pay would be $7 an hour with no benefits. I was making $18 an hour with full benefits.”
“The mechanics and pilots were union and they had much better pay and benefits than we did,” he said. “Because we were unrepresented, we were like dust on a carpet. They could do with us whatever they wanted.” Kush began working at United in 1991 but was not a Member of the IAM until 2003. “As soon as our classification became represented, we noticed an immediate difference,” Kush said. “We got a huge pay increase. Our work rules changed for the better. And if you had any problems on the job, the union was on the scene to back you up.” Kush said current Continental employees will be in for “sticker shock” when they join United.
Kush got the impression the offer was “take it or leave it,” and since he needed a job he took it.
“United is a an adversarial company,” he said. “The only way to deal with it is to be in a union. You simply can’t be on your own. Management will walk all over you.”
“They eventually gave us a 50-cent an hour raise and a couple of weeks vacation,” Kush said. “But it was a totally different work environment. Everyone was bitter and the relationship with management changed significantly. It became quite adversarial.
“That’s why I strongly recommend that Continental employees vote IAM. They’ll have a union of 55,000 Members, one that has the strength, knowledge, experience, and power to do the job for its Members.”

What about the future?
United, Continental share history
Walter Varney, a World War I pilot, purchased the landing strip and school and began a company called Varney Airlines.
Most IAM Members probably have never heard of Walter Varney or of his connection to the beginnings of both United and Continental Airlines.
Shortly thereafter, Varney bought the United Aircraft and Transportation Company and distributed flowers by air from greenhouses in Redwood City.
Back in the early 1900s, when cross-country air races and barnstorming were the rage, the United States Post Office even began using aircraft to transport the mail. The need for adequate landing fields soon became apparent. In 1916, a pilot named Silas Christofferson purchased a strip of land in Redwood City, Calif., that was used as an airstrip and a flying school. A few years after Christofferson’s death, a local resident,

The Post Office soon required better and more dependable air service to carry increasing quantities of mail. In 1924, it began to contract with private companies for that purpose. In April 1926, Varney Airlines flew 64 pounds of mail from Paseo, Wash., to Elko, Nev., in the first contracted airmail flight. In 1930, Varney Airlines and United Aircraft merged, and in 1933 changed its name to United Airlines. In 1934, Varney and a partner founded Varney Speed Lines. The company later became Continental Airlines.

MERGER
Carmona said that if IAM Members wanted to keep their seniority, they had to transfer to St. Louis, TWA’s old hub.
Carmona: Members must be vigilant in mergers
“Anyone who didn’t transfer lost his or her seniority,” Carmona said. “It just goes to show you that anything can happen and the union and its Members have to be vigilant.”
Al Carmona, retired District 141 Secretary-Treasurer, knows from his four decades working in airline industry that when it comes to dealing with a merger, anything can happen.
The America West and US Airways merger in 2005 had the opposite result. “IAM Members’ seniority was recognized and we came out OK,” he said.
“I’ve seen a lot of mergers,” Carmona said. “But one thing is constant. Management wants to make as many employees be nonunion as possible.”
Carmona said that too often Members take their union benefits for granted and become complacent. Carmona said that mandated representation elections following a merger offer an opportunity for management to eliminate union representation.
“They will launch campaigns against the union with sweet talk and outright lies,” he said. “But Members beware, their only goal is to decimate the hard-won wages, benefits and working conditions that have taken decades to achieve.” The US Airways-Piedmont merger in 1989 saw the teamsters, who represented US Airways ramp service workers, voted out. “We went in and reorganized them,” Carmona said. “It took almost five years, but we finally negotiated a superior contract.”
Carmona cited the example of non-union workers who do work outsourced by the airlines. “Just look at their wages, benefits and working conditions,” Carmona said. “Look at how the company treats them. That’s how you will be treated if there is no union to represent you.” Carmona said all employees at United and Continental should ask themselves one question:
The American AirlinesTWA merger in 2001 had a unique set of circumstances that affected IAM Members’ seniority rights.
“Do you want to work under a contract and be in a union that is dedicated to the protection of your rights or do you want to be on your own and work at the whim of management?”
“The TWU represented American’s workers,” he said. “We represented TWA.” “An arbitrator ruled that the TWU contract with American had precedence when it came to seniority. That meant that our Members had to go to the back of the line.”
7
“All Members have to understand,” he said, “that when you lose union representation, you lose all of the protections and benefits in the union contract, including due process, seniority, pay, and benefits. You are basically on your own.”
Carmona knows the answer. “I know anyone who thinks about it will come to the conclusion that the IAM is the only way to go,” he said.

LABOR HISTORY Early labor efforts foster racial equality
Even the Labor Movement was not immune to the rampant racial discrimination prevalent in the United States in the early part of the 20th Century. Just as with most institutions in society, many — but not all — unions were parties to segregation and racial inequality. One significant exception was the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) Longshoreman’s Local 8 in Philadelphia. The IWW, also known as the Wobblies, was founded in Chicago in 1905 at a convention of 200 socialists, anarchists, and radical trade unionists from all over the United States. Many of the delegates were representatives of the Western Federation of Miners who were opposed to the policies of the American Federation of Labor (AFL).
Equal justice Unless you’re a union leader Prior to World War I, union leaders were declared enemies of the state by the United States Supreme Court. Many were jailed during the government campaign of harassment. Some of the same leaders were fighting for racial equality.
The Wobblies believed that all workers should organize as a class and that the AFL had failed to effectively organize the U.S. working class because only 5 percent of all workers belonged to unions in 1905. They also believed the AFL organized workers according to narrow craft principles that divided workers. The IWW’s policy broke from common practice by welcoming black workers on equal, non-segregated terms. Local 8 was founded in 1913. For most of its 10-year existence, it had a black majority and black workers served in leadership positions. One of the local’s major accomplishments was ending the companies’ waterfront “shape-up” hiring system that had been used to discriminate against black workers. In 1913, Local 8 also did away with segregation that had existed on the Philadelphia waterfront among work gangs. All of these desegregation efforts were accomplished while the local successfully accommodated the needs of its members who were recent immigrants from eastern Europe and Ireland.
Enemies of the state
The interracial, multicultural solidarity built by the union withstood every challenge until 1922. But by then, the local had been weakened by the imprisonment of many of its top leaders during a government campaign of harassment that began during the years surrounding America’s involvement in World War I. The leaders were jailed along with other IWW activists across the United States, charged with being “enemies of the state.” The campaign of harassment finally took its toll and the local succumbed when it lost an employer lockout in 1922. But Local 8’s pioneering, unprecedented successful efforts to integrate black workers remains a lasting legacy.

Priceless Why pay dues to a union? To paraphrase Shakespeare, “Let us count the ways.” Sometimes we hear Members complain about having to pay their union dues. No one likes to spend money, especially when times are tough. But every one of us should be proud to pay union dues, because our membership in District 141 is the best bargain of our working lives. Here is what we union members get for our money: • Better wages: The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that union members earn much more than non-union workers. In 2009, the median weekly earnings of union members was $908, while those who were not represented by unions had median weekly earnings of $710. Of course, District 141 Members make much more than that. • Better benefits: Union workers continue to enjoy significantly better benefits than non-union workers. For example, the BLS reports that 93 percent of union workers have access to employer-paid health insurance, compared with only 70 percent of non-union workers. Union workers also get better-quality health insurance and pay much less in co-pays and deductibles. The Bureau of Labor Statistics also reports that union workers are more likely to have: • Retirement benefits • Employer-paid life insurance • Paid sick leave • Paid personal leave. • Job protections: Your union contract guarantees you protection from arbitrary discipline from your employer. You also have certain rights on the job, including access to a grievance process that lets Members dispute the company’s interpretation or application of contract language and/or disciplinary procedures. • Representation: If you believe that a violation of the collective bargaining agreement has occurred, you have the right to contact a union representative so that he or she can investigate your situation. If a violation has occurred, a grievance might be filed on your behalf. Workers who don’t have union representation are out of luck. So the next time a co-worker asks you why it is important to belong to a union and what his or her union dues are for, please show them a copy of this article. Unions always have and always will continue to make a vital difference for their Members and for our country. Those union dues are a bargain.

Bullying or Heated Discussion?
2005-2009
In life we all have heated discussions about politics, religion, family, and money, just to name a few. Not having a strong opinion seems unrealistic when it comes to a teamster contract that takes us back more than fifty years.
yesterday
2000-2004 1994-2000 1989-1994 1986-1989
In 1948, the IAM negotiated double time pay for overtime. The teamsters don’t have double time. Instead they introduced straight-time overtime if you want it. That leads to the next teamster first, called split shifts. On a teamster split shift, while you’re sitting around waiting for the other half of your shift, why not work some straight time overtime?
1983-1986
The next thing the teamsters sold to its new, unknowing membership at Continental is unlimited part-time. In Houston there are nine hundred part-time workers. On January 1, 2012, that number could drop by half to four hundred fifty full-time split shift workers. January 1, 2012 is when the teamsters decided to end job protection.
1972-1973
That’s not the end of the carnage. Once workers start working straight-time overtime between their split shifts, there goes another two hundred jobs. The reduction of benefit cost for the company is in the millions and the teamsters got you $5 per day for each split shift.
1952
1981-1983 1978-1981 1975-1978 1973-1975 1963-1965 1961-1962 1957-1959 1956-1957 1955-1956 1951 1950 1949 1948
The teamsters also introduced job sharing. Job sharing allows management, or anyone else, to do your work. I’m sure Continental’s teamster workers are already filing grievances but don’t expect too much. If it’s not written in your contract, you are not protected. By contrast, if management does hourly work in the IAM Contract, they have to pay with a penalty of time-and-a-half. The teamsters also did not include Lead Ratios. The IAM contract calls for one lead for every twelve workers. In the teamster contract, management decides who and how many will get paid for Lead. How’s that grievance going for ya? Retro pay, shift differential, and pay increases will begin nearest the employee’s anniversary date or “when technology permits.” That’s right. The words, “when technology permits” are actually in the teamster contract. How’s that grievance going? The teamster Continental Micronesia contract says the company will contribute $0.47 to the Western Conference of Teamsters Pension Plan for every hour worked. Compare that to the IAM Contract in which the company contributes $1.35 per hour worked to the IAM National Pension Plan. In twenty years, the teamster plan will pay you less than $250 a month. The IAM Plan will pay you $985 a month.
Compare and think
In every debate the IAM Contract exceeds the teamster contracts. The IAM believes in transparency. All these agreements can be found on voteIAM.com. Educate yourself and make an informed decision based on facts – not teamster promises.
