Rez, I am not going to engage you like to others, because it is painfully obvious that your inflated sense of self prohibits you from hearing any viewpoint other then your own. So there's really no point in debating with someone who can never be wrong. Go ahead and chalk it up to my "inexperience" in this industry and with the issues, or my "aloofness", seeing as you know so much about me and all... You know, because since I just signed up in March I must be new to the industry, right?![]()
Go ahead and fix ALPA for everybody. We're all counting on you.

Note the smily face to indicate a sense of neutrality and not a personal jab...in my quote above...
Look the fact is... our union is a representative democracy. The key to effectiveness is participation and an understanding that elections on the issues will result in up to 49% of the participants unhappy.
But what else are we to do? Reject self government? Embrace socialism/communism/dictatorships.
We have the ability to voice our wishes, wants and needs yet we don't in our union. All while being aloof we expect our (un)elected leadership to "do the right thing, at the right time for the right reason."
Well.....define.. what is right..... it is incredibly subjective... especially when we do not participate.
Communication is the key to any successful relationship....
