January Day Of Action – Virtual Picketing

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Download and Print or Display a Picket Sign

• Download your choice of picket sign, then print it, or you can display it on a tablet so you’ll have it with you to post tomorrow during the picketing event. 

Step 2: Take a Supportive Selfie

• Take a selfie with your sign, preferably in uniform! This is an excellent opportunity to involve your whole crew in the activity.
  
  ***Important Note***
  Don’t take your selfie while on duty or on the aircraft. A great time to take a picture would be in the terminal after deplaning at the end of your trip or upon arrival at your layover hotel.

Step 3: Post Your Picture on Social Media

• While our informational picketing event is happening, post your picture on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram! Tag or mention @AFAUnitedMEC, and set your post to public so others can see your message.

@United “Best airline in the history of aviation” Not without its frontline workers. Corporate greed has left @afaunitedmec Flight Attendants without a Contract or raises for 5+ years. #ifScottCanSayitHeCanPayit #ContractNow #UnionStrong

Record profits. Executive bonuses. Zero Contract. Zero raises. 5 years waiting, that’s not excellence, that’s corporate greed. #ContractNow 

@scottkirby claims @united is the “best airline in aviation history” while pushing concessions and denying @afaunitedmec Flight Attendants the improvements we’ve earned. 5+ years, no Contract. #Enoughisenough #ifScottCanSayitHeCanPayit #ContractNow
