When American (Envoy) and US Air merged, both had to bid on who gets to keep the ground handling jobs. US Air won the bid so Envoy had no choice but to let their crew go. If Envoy had won the bid, it would be US Air's crew in this position right now, Granted, bringing them back at $2.00 an hour less is a PRICK move.
In the mean time, those of us saps who have been paying our loans faithfully for the past ten years are looked at as complete idiots with not even an appreciative thank you from these JA's. Only in Bahamaland!!!
I think that at the heart of Mr. Aly's frustration is the fact that the landlord collected the rent on Sunday and bulldozed the shantys on Monday. And yeah that would suck!
Can you imagine how much better this country would be if we would be if we put all of this energy towards the bad governance that we have saddled with over these many long years. SMH.
If a company does not want you to work for them, they have the right to terminate you and pay you what is owed to you. As an employee, you do not own or have any shares in the company and the union is there to ensure that you are treated fairly and have good working conditions. If you chose to act the fool and demand of the company rights that you are not entitled to and the company fires your behind, as long as you get your pay then its goodbye and thanks for the memories.
