IF you are stating that the only retribution that you seek against the scabs is denying them your sterling company on layovers, then you are within your rights.
I believe that we have a minor agreement on one small point. If anyone is creating a hostile work environment in the cockpit, then it is out of line, because it impacts safety.
A minor disagreement on one small point? You forgive and associate with scabs. I cannot fathom the mindset that brings one to the conclusion that scabbing is ok.
I congratulate you on your steadfast belief that their transgressions of thirty years ago should be forgiven. I wonder if you might change your mind if you found yourself walking a picket line, watching scabs flying your aircraft, wondering if you will have a job to return to. Then you go home only to face your family questioning if you will be able to provide for them. I'm sure the scab is concerned for your predicament.
For the sake is of discussion, how long would it take you to forgive your scab friends if they scabbed again and you honored the picket line? Are we talking months, years, or decades?
