Comment on NBC 5 chicago last night on United merger
They asked the opinion of a flight attendant walking through the terminal about the Merger. She said" Did you ever hear about a merger that was good for workers?"
I couldn't believe they aired that. there is no video of it on the local or NBC websites that I can find. so sorry no link.

1. There has never been a merger, in the history of mergers, that didn't result in job losses...
Always...always...always...

2. Thanks for your report. It is a bit unbelievable.

I have found that only the Spanish speaking channels ever mention news from the side of the workers.

Maybe the reporter airing this thinks that he or she is about to be pink slipped themselves?
