3. He should have an opportunity to do HIMS and get his job back. If a union can do better than that, I don't care because I don't want pilots coming to work drunk with no ramifications. From previous union experience, the union will save your job, but only if you're an MEC member or close personal friend thereof.
When in the name of Moroni did .02 qualify as "drunk"?!!!
And I'm sure we're all impressed with your "previous union experience", but I am a former rep, and what you describe is illegal under the RLA (DFR) and could get the union and rep sued for damages. So your baseless accusation that only friends and insiders are helped is idiotic at best and defamatory at worst.
