We've got several indications that the American Airlines UNIONS are growing even more impatient with the pace, or non-pace, of contract talks. First, several Transport Workers Union local presidents have written letters expressing frustration and unhappiness with the TWU international leadership as well as American. And the Allied Pilots Association is grousing about the National Mediation Board. Jim Iuliano, president of Local 562 in New York, started out a letter to TWU International President Jim Little by saying: "I've come to learn over the many months I spent negotiating that we lack leadership and direction." ...

As the U.S. banking industry undergoes a historic upheaval, many people are considering credit UNIONS as a new place to park their money. While credit UNIONS may not offer the breadth of services available at a bank, a greater degree of individual attention may be what some customers are looking for amid a crisis. A key advantage is that credit UNIONS often offer more competitive rates, too, since they're tax-exempt, not-for-profit cooperatives. ...

"Given the annual pressures on the town’s budget and the current state of the economy, we need to find as many ways as possible to limit increases in the town’s costs. This will be a tremendous help." As part of the negotiations with employee UNIONS to join the Group Insurance Commission (GIC), the town agreed to increase its contribution from 80 percent of the premium cost to 85 percent. Because the rates are significantly lower, the town will save about 20 percent of its health insurance costs, even with the increase in contribution share.
