So since the company isn't going to honor the contract, that's why they need ALPA there, since ALPA has done nothing for the guy either? That makes sense. So not only is the company not going to help you out, but neither is ALPA.
So not only do you have to watch you back from the company, you have to watch out from ALPA trying to bend you over as well. And you're paying 2% for that.

ALPA not only negotiates the contract but also enforces it. So if the company does not comply, it is up to ALPA to compel the company to comply. Unfortunately, the RLA makes that rather difficult. If this guy wont help, ALPA does have contract administrators that will do it. Unfortunately when some bad apples get in the way, it requires some perseverance on the part of ALPA to get things done. And yes, part of the less than 2% goes to pay for that contract administrator so you might as well use that resource when you need it.
