This is one of the most arrogant, over compensated "officers" that the CWA-afa has in a position of "authority." The fact that two of their MECs grew enough of a spine to remove him is remarkable given the CWA-afa's typical prospensity to close ranks and protect their own. Apparently the Philadelphia and Charlotte LEC presidents either have put their respective memberships' interests first, which is unlikely, or have political agendas of their own.
It will be interesting to see if one of those LEC Presidents tries to assume the role of MEC President at USAir.
What is still mystifying to us is why, nearly SEVEN YEARS after the merger, the CWA-afa flight attendants still haven't followed their own Constitution and MERGED the MECs. A huge part of the problem in arriving at a joint contract at USAir was the inability of either MEC to relinquish power and control and merge into one cohesive unit for the benefit of the membership. (UA MEC Are You Listening?!?) Flores was a big part of that problem.
We wonder if he'll actually go back to flying for a real living or try to find a job as executive assistant coffee boy to the executive assistant coffee boy to the international coffee boy.
