AS Recalls?

[Old School 737]

A bit off topic but now that our MEC chairman is at the national level does he stay MEC chairman or do we vote a new one in?

Hey Old school...I wish it mattered but ALPA national couldn't care less about little old Alaskan airlines. I would love to be an "in house" union.

Why would national care? Even our own MEC (S.C.) didn't care, except for his "own". Action speaks louder than words-ie. block representation screw job.
btw, welcome back to our furloughed brothers & sisters!

He has to step down 01/01/2011. The reps will appoint a new person for the vacancy. As far as block rep, get over it because it is done.

On topic.

Any word on bypass takers from the last twelve letters that went out?

I am over it. I'm so numb to the $hit that goes on with ALPA and everything else, I don't lose sleep over it. Yeah, keep bending over too while you are at it! Oh wait a minute..... you are SEA. My bad.

I am guessing you do worry about it as your caustic attitude shows it. I am glad I don't have to fly with you. Also, since you seem to think you know all the answers, why don't you volunteer for something? Rep? Committee? You are probably too busy to help your fellow pilots. You are right...you are bad.

Now, where is that block button.

No, I don't claim to know all of the answers. I get my info from our LEC whom I trust.
How many times have I heard this ridiculous comment: "why don't you volunteer for something?". Typical union dork response when they are cornered. I pay my dues (which is not really put into good use IMO); that's all I can do at the moment. Between a regular line, the military reserves, and taking care of my family, so yeah...... I'm too busy to help our fellow pilots. Walk a mile in my shoes before you open your cake hole!

How many pilots based in ANC? How many voted for the block rep election? Less than 1/3...that's sad. Beat your chest in protest but until some of you guys stand up and do more than complain and actually vote, this will b the only result.

There is no ability to bypass, yet. The gossip is that a side letter may come out. If you are not on a contract or military then you have no choice but to quit.

 

[Tatoosh65]

OK, OK,... MIL or LOA's from the last 12 letters...

You couldn't do better than the LAX Capt Rep - But I bet RD wouldn't do it. The guy that mentioned an in house union has the right idea. ALPA is a $$$ sucking machine. Good luck to all of us!!!!

Under block Representation, what Seattle wants will 'b' the only result regardless of what any number of people in Anchorage do.

Why would they bother to vote when there isn't any representation? It's like electing the senator from Puerto Rico. Pointless.
