It’s hard to say whether the more than 90 percent of engineering and professional and technical union members who voted to approve the Mid-Western Aircraft Co. contract did so out of fatigue more than satisfaction. In any case, the overwhelming vote is the latest welcome sign that all parties at the new company are focused on the future. After 18 months of turbulence, it’s time.

But now, the tension escalates once more due to recertification of SPEEA! These folks evidently have nothing better to do than challenge the majority who want a union! Come on people, give it up! If MWAS doesn’t have SPEEA to help it’s technical people, you think we will have the current benefits? NOT!
I don’t know about that. The last vote for decertification, there was some crazy things going on. A lost voting box found days after the election. I smell “RIGGED”
Remember when Boeing President “I-Have-Affairs” Stonecipher said that Boeing had no plans to sell the Wichita plant.
And then like six months later they sold the plant.
When do we get to conclude that these “captains of industry” the Republicans love so much are really lying weasels?
Don’t you guys/gals ever sleep? Blogging at 1 and 2 in the AM????? You have a life like the recert folks!
One other thing…. the “lost ballots” Mr. Williams blogs about was really some challenged ballots the NLRB agent left in his briefcase, and didn’t find them till he arrived in KC. SPEEA, Boeing, and a recert focal drove to KC and counted those ballots. Virtually no change to the vote.
