Muddauber (a SWA pilot) recently posted this on the fractional forum. I'm just curious if this is the general attitude toward unions by a majority of the pilots at SWA?

I figure the Teamsters must be paying your salary or you wouldn't be spouting such BS. All the Unions have done a wonderful job for pilots. Charlie Bryant killed Eastern, they've turned a good $200,000 dollar a year job at US Air into a $100,000 a year job - not to mention cutting the pension from nearly $100,000 to $28,000 if your lucky enough to not have to pay money back. They managed list integration just peachy with the American/TWA merger - Oh! I forgot, they didn't and most of the TWA guys are gone. They really stood up for Northwest and UAL pilots when they needed them and IBT is helping Netjets pilots get paid Citation 2 wages for flying Falcons. Great. That's really money well spent. I also really enjoy the way the unions try to rule by intimidation. It looks like Gunfyter is trying to create a version of scab lists just for the fractional industry and updated for the internet. Just makes it a great place to work doesn't it - when you don't know who your friends are and who's a spy? Give us a break - you have always been irrelevant, now you have become tiresome.
