I am Confused, Should I Right it Up?

[PCL_128]

Pcl comes on here waving the union banner in his sig and calls himself a union thug? How about talking unity and strengthening the Pilot group? Apathy and malleability are not qualities that make a successful "union thug"

Following the law is not apathy and malleability. You are clueless. Hopefully your ignorance doesn't cost you your career.

It would be nice if the union stepped up and fought this. Don't you think that if ALPA national came out with publicity that a airline was firing guys for writing up broken airplanes the companies would be less likely to come after pilots? Too bad ALPA is too self serving to be an actiual representative of its pilots.

The problem is ALPA has no balls!

They just want your money and succumb to management wishes.

Look at the crap contracts approved by spineless MEC's.

ALPA has grown useless.

The regionals need a real union!

It's quite amusing that ALPA has people called representatives. They represent nothing and no one. They certainly didn't represent the wishes of 83% of XJT pilots. Perhaps it would be beneficial if they flew the line once in a while and asked a working pilot what is an acceptable contract.

And now SP is the JNC Chairman, at least that's what I'm hearing, more of the same crap unfortunately. Nothing will change. We'll just end up w/ another crap TA. He was voted out as ATL Rep awhile back but managed to get another gig w/ his buddy Newie on the LASA ALPA gravy train. They all need to go, but no one else runs so they stay & get re-elected/appointed! Or appointed by their buds on the MEC!

You should change your sig line to management puke instead of union thug.
You sound much more like a chief pilot than A union rep/volunteer!

The reps. are full time line pilots. They can't even take ALPA leave for LEC meetings.

He bought his job at Gulfstream, now he tries to talk tough, he is Genny Lee in a real uniform. You can take the PFTer out of the Beech, but you can't take the beech out of the PFTer.

ALPA is pilots, so by default pilots have no balls? A real union populated by the same bunch of no loads that are there now? Sorry Mike, pilots are basically all pu$$ies, union and nonunion. When people ask me what I do I say "I move trash from trailer park to trailer park".

Unfortunately the law is in contradiction with itself, which makes all of us criminals if we write everything up, or criminals if we fail to write everything up.

Once again I can blame government for just about everthing that is wrong with this industry (and every other industry for that matter).

Then you haven't been watching the industry for very long.
