THIS IS A PETITION TO REMOVE LAURA GLADING FROM OFFICE

#374: -  

 Hi co-workers, you know I was in the barroom gettin dressed and I thought about AA and I started thinking how is this all going to end. I thought about AA and what kind of airline it will be in the future. I got sad because I thought why do we always have to fight to get something. And that thought made me realize that it's all about being respected as a major player in this organization. I remembered just recently flying with this captain and him telling us in the van how disgusted he was in what AA is proposing to its work groups . He stated that FA's and pilots were with passengers more than anyone . He told a story about when he was on a trip boarding and at the time Horton was the CEO he peeped into the cockpit to say hi. He said he told him that don't they get it that we are majorly imp to this company and operating like this will bring down morale and in return it will affect AA. After all he said Horton still can back saying that cuts will have to be taken and the captain says to him I see your not trying to get it so please excuse me, I need you to get out of my cockpit so I can get back to work. How sad that AA are not thinking like the other airlines in dealing with their workers!! He said that the list that they want to discuss with them is saying that they will make them comparable with the Delta pilots but they don't want to give them profit sharing like Delta pilots have. You see AA knows in the future that it will be major earrings made with the few airlines that have remained and they just don't want to share. How fats they treat us like this. To my new hire FA's don't be fooled you will be here for many years to come. This is not a job that you just do a little while, once you get in you don't leave. So be very carful what you settle for . They already didn't pay you for training. Look into this and find out if the other airline do that . I don't know but I would be willing to bet that AA is the only one. I've been here for thirty years and when it happened I got my pin and a certificate. That's it!!! I have a girlfriend with continental/united she is about  8 months ahead if me. We were on the phone one day and she told me to hold on someone was at the door. It was Fedx delivering her one if those expensive bicycle . When she went in her trip flight service was there with a cake, flowers and a certificate. That's what she got !!!! When will AA get it- that's how things should be done- really . Even the old United had a program- every 5 year anniversary they got to chose a gift out of a catalog. That's hope things are done . We have loyal professional hard-working employees. AA is a good company with a good image. I know I've been here for a long time. Let's not let this airline be turned into a low cost airline with disgruntled workers- let's save AA by demanding respect and compareable wages and other things like the other few airlines have. I pray that those in charge will soon get it too. Love you guys!!!
