What has ALPA done for me lately?

[PHXFLYR]

I've got no dog in this fight....but....do you realistically see all the pilots ( or at least 50% + 1) voting to keep ALPA as their representative or going to USAPA?

They're fools if they don't. Like 'em or hate 'em, there isn't a union out there that provides the depth of resources for pilots that ALPA does Problem is pilots are too stupid and lazy to figure out how to use them.

...and if it all goes USAPA...what is your plan?

"...I don't know,what was the name of that truck driving school, Mav ? Truckmasters, I think? "

Just sitting in the stands watching the "mud-slinging"

Just standing in the field doing the slinging !!:beer:

More like "the ignorant one" if your vote's for USAPA.

I can tell you have an ALPA mindset. You know what is best for others and would vote for them.:laugh:

tic, toc, tic, toc....:bomb:

Never said I knew what's best for others, you did !And by the way,mind telling me what an "ALPA mindset" is ?? Just curious. You realize the path your getting ready to go down won't accomplish what youre hoping for and will cost you many more years of LOA 93 wages. But then again, if you're busy feeding at the gov't trough,I guess your airline paycheck isn't really all that important to you anyhow. It's just sad to see that you and many others like you aren't using your talent to work within the system and start recouping some of what you lost since 9/11 and 2 trips thru bankruptcy court. You might be laughing now.But somehow I think I'll get the last laugh when in a few years your new union hasn't accomplished anything that they said they would and your still working under LOA 93 payrates and workrules. Then what are you gonna do ?

LOL!:laugh:

I was joking when I told you that you may as well not vote since my vote will cancel your's out.

You are the one that is trying to tell me all the reasons a vote for USAPA is wrong, a waste of time, fruitless, and actually dangerous. And you actually meant it?!:laugh:

Give it up. Trying to tell an eastwhole how to vote is like telling a lemming which way to run. (See we have a sense of humor and can afford to be self-deprecating).

Yeah, yeah.. the good news is that if ALPA wins the election, by the time I retire from the military, even the most junior puke at USAir will be making twice as much as SouthWest pilots and if USAPA wins then the salary will be at least half as much as Soutwest. Either way you all will be singing kumbaya and be better off after all the character building...

Or you'll all be out of work singing in the bars.:beer:Good luck. Vote early and often.

I have no idea what you just said.

But you're halfway there on the "singing in the bars" part.

Spent 10 years flying as a USAir Express pilot. I learned a very very long time ago that you can't tell an "easthole" ( your words,not mine) anything.

Regarding the "character building" statement. Might want to think about partaking in some soon.
