Remember how the UAL safety culture became agnostic and cooperative after the SFO 747 incident? ALPA and the UAL management worked hand-in-hand to do what was right with respect to safety, no politics. It was truly something to be proud of as a UA pilot and despite contractual disputes that were going on at the time, UA and ALPA were partners in safety. UA management invested big bucks in safety/procedures training because they saw the benefit of increasing the margins of safety throughout the system.

By all appearances, the cooperative safety culture has been gutted and corporate cost savings have become the driving force behind everything UAL is doing. A pilot license belongs to a pilot, not the company - protect yours.

I wonder how well the UA MEC will do presenting all the references to aircraft specific SOP in our CBA I can't find a single one, but to the company this is all about contract negotiations?
