Please help a fellow union brother not SCAB.

I agree with that. I'm not the believer in "social enforcement" that I used to be.

Bless you my child.

Glad you appreciate fellow pilots putting their needs before the rest of the pilot group.

In your opinion. We don't want to coerce anybody just because we think it would be right to do so. Incredible that you don't even understand what we are saying, much less agree.

Oh I understand when someone has no spine to stand with their fellow pilots and would rather sell them out and pretend to do it under the guise of being intimidated.

Amazing how those that hate the union still rely on them for representation.

If you're going to make the leap at least be a man about it. Maybe your wife will even allow you to.

Whether or not somebody acts hard (or doesn't) has nothing to do with whether or not they'll actually strike. You never know who will or who won't when the time comes. Which btw, you guys are no where near being released. So maybe you ought to put a pin in this for now?

My wife would probably organize a baseball bat wielding mob to attack the strikers. I am the most PRO union member of my entire extended family! BTW, am I reading these posts right, the earliest date for a strike would be somewhere around 2 years from now?

Your wife sounds like a thug.

Ironic.

Wanting to beat up thugs is not equivalent to being a thug.

Bash the coercion all you want, but I'm betting that it's exactly that that has caused you to decide that you'd rather quit. Sounds like mission accomplished to me.

United we stand-Divided we fall.

That's the easiest way I can describe it to you.

One pilot crossing the line gives management a hard on and let's them know that there are chinks in the armor. Especially if you're two years from a strike and you're already letting them know you'll scab.

Quitting and moving on is what some of the most respectable former CAL pilots did during the strike.

There's a poster on here who talks of moving on from an undesirable situation...

That this is the tone of the conversation over there, means Mgt has them by the short and curlies, and the union is not managing this well. Build a case, then take a strike vote.

The coercion definitely works. I am just pointing out the contrast between normally moral and decent people who approve of this mistreatment of other people when it comes to unions. A deviation from how they live the other parts of their lives.

I have NOT said I will scab. In fact, I almost certainly won't.

Works for me.
