If they really put an obvious all-out effort into achieving this objective (which they are going to have to first define and communicate... duh), then I won't be mad at them if they fail for reasons beyond their control. Now, if they keep going like they've been going... which is refusing to advocate restoration and even arguing against it... then yes you are right I will be unhappy with them. But to say I'm not going to be happy with ALPA no matter what... That's just not a fair or true statement.
Will do.
So before you start pulling the scuttle plug on the ship, wouldn't it be worthwhile to at least see how the openings are going. While we might not see the actual openings.. we will have a good idea of how stiff it was by management's reaction. I really don't wanting them to telegraph their intentions at this point in time, it is still 3 months away from that time. As it gets closer, I expect the rhetoric flame to be turned up. Patience grasshopper... We are gonna get into this crap soon enough.
