So a minority is calling the majority scabs? How much longer has East paid ALPA union dues than West?
There is a lot of propaganda in this forum.
Captain Woerth didn't bring some random SCAB, he brought the CAL MEC Chairman. It was the CAL pilots and their MEC that made the mistake of electing a SCAB to that office, not Duane. He brought the CAL Master-Chairman to talk to them because the IACP had recently merged back into ALPA for the precise reason that their independent union was completely ineffective compared to ALPA. Despite being a SCAB, he had good insights into the differences between ALPA and non-ALPA. Personally, I think Duane should have brought someone else from CAL, but he wanted the head of the MEC.....when the America West pilots were threatening to leave ALPA....Duane Woerth brought a scab with him to PHX to try and talk the America West pilots out of leaving ALPA.....There is so much irony here...where to begin......
You need to pick up the nearest dictionary and read the definition of "scab." Hint: you don't have to cross a picket line to be a scab....and no one has crossed a picket line...
Hear...Hear !!! The use of the word "scab" has lately been associated with those who have nothing more than a different point of view concerning representation.
As far as refusing jumpseats....I have heard absolutely nothing from my union ( not ALPA) and...even my ALPA buds at UAL, DAL, NWA, CAL and other airlines haven't heard anything from their union reps on this...
As for the use of the word "scab"....there has been no picket line crossed to perform struck work...the word "scab" doesn't apply here...
Here's a little joke to perhaps lighten this thread up a bit.
Do you know what a USAPA pilot likes to F' more than the hottest, sexiest, most adventurous, chick on the planet???
Another pilot!!!!
