So they voted them in. Do they have the right to remove them? And we have the ability to remove a congressman.

Im definatly dont know for sure, but it's my understanding that the delegates are elected, and there for can be removed from their position on the next election.
Any one got a answer for Buck

 It appears planedoctor is an industrial unionist sympathizer.
I guess the TEAMSTER paid to have this site erected to defend their dues money!

I'm sorry I havent had the time to place the "about this site" info for all to read, but will breifly state this:
This site was invisioned as a platform for ALL AIRCRAFT TECHNICIANS. In order to provide a unbiased platform I must remain NEUTRAL as best as can be in posts I make.
If there is information I have knowlege about I will pass that on to the user. I dont want to appear pro-UNION or pro-Company to anyone here.
I think that if you think about it you would understand it's better to have a website ran that way. If I was here to bash IBT, AMFA of any other company I would limit the audience and limit the discussions.
I do have views but they will not be posted by "planedoctor"-site ADMIN.

That's hogwash! You do not appear neutral at all. And given your poor spelling and grammar, likely not a professional either.

Maybe Harmonics would like to share some of his views about the aviation industry in a lengthy article. He seems to have talent as a professional literary critic. He also obviously has something to say about the union spending habits.
What do you think folks?

My, My, My, aren't there trouble makers everywhere.
In my opinion (which I value substantially more than that of Harmonics) this seems to be a highly unbiased site, and I feel that PlaneDoctor should just try to ignore the insults that some of the newer members seem to be hell bent on posting here.
In a message to Harmonics directly, please refrain from exhibiting your "Kindergarten Tactics" here, as this is a site for professionals, and not intended for childishness. If you instist on being such a child, maybe you should hang out on the AMFA site instead. I am sure they would be albe appreciate your juvenile antics much more than the administrator of this site.
Thanks in advance for your understanding, and your ADULT decision to keep the insults to a minimum. 
(P.S.)
I just bet you write on bathroom walls too don't you !!! |

The truth begins to surface from the angry crowd. This is indeed a site of the industrial unionist that despise AMFA.
I did not think much time would pass before the true colors were shown.
You guys are too predictable and easy to spot from cyber years away.

It also appears from simple investigations and post readings that one person uses more than one alias on this site and talks to himself to decieve the rest of us.
This site is a complete farse and joke promoting industrial unionism and the same old "strength in numbers" B.S.
Face it DUDE the AFL-CIO sucks the big one and AMFA IS COMING!!!

| It never ceases to amaze me how closed minded some people can be. Thank you for renewing my faith that there are still IDIOTS out there. |

| I do not know about this bashing, but the inability to vote to remove anyone from the AFL-CIO, the Air Transport Division, the TWU International or it's Locals is a fact. It is nowhere close to the Representitive Republic that this country is founded on. Industrial unionism has a base history of communist involvement. Why this issue was removed from the AMFA thread surprises me. The abilty to remove your elected representitive in one the tenets of the AMFA Constitution. It is more democratic and produces a far better form of representation. This issue has nothing to do with the Teamsters. Those of you who would bash the AMFA had better take the time to read it's constitution. The priciples of this document provide for democratic represntation and protection of the mechanics and related craft and class. |

Sorry Buck I thought we had kinda switched gears and were talking about the IBT with your post listed above.

One of the main reasons (which I have stated a few times on this site) is there is a lack of unionism in the A&P field as a whole ie. one union covering all A&P types like the pilots have ALPA. I honestly don't know which the best union is, if it even exists at the current time.
Harmonics, since you seem to be very knowledgeable about the difference's in the union's and which would be better. Could you enlighten us?
I would also like more feedback from you on why it is you think "This site is a complete farse and joke promoting industrial unionism and the same old "strength in numbers" B.S."
I would like this site as neutral as possible. To explain what I mean, I want to have the structure there to allow people with different opinions and different organizations an opportunity to express themselves and not leave anyone out.
