FWIW, I believe that as long as there are outstanding merger issues and an Agreement that is yet to be fully implemented, ALPA needs to keep a close eye on what goes on. We owe a lot of thanks to the volunteers who perform ALPA work and I would like to do so now.
I have never been a volunteer but if being an ALPA volunteer turns out to be occasionally financial rewarding then they deserve it. These guys and gals take time away from their own families to help us have a better workplace
