I'm a no vote on ALPA. Get over it.

Really? Frederick Winslow Taylor, the father of scientific management proclaimed: "Nothing motivates people like money"!


What are you flying planes for, fun?



I get it. You are anti ALPA. But, I find it funny that you still haven't been able to name a tangible benefit you are enjoying that your ALPA peers are doing without!


I've asked you a few times. But, you don't know!


Speaks volumes!

Seriously dude. I can listen to both sides. But, I've yet to hear the benefits JetBlue Pilots have over ALPA guys!


And, how to you propose to fix issues under the DR? They used to say it could take 3-5 years to reach a CBA but the DR is more nimble and doesn't have constraints and bureaucracy of a union. Several years later, JB Pilots aren't even close to a PEA that remotely resembles a CBA!

Why???

How would you propose to fix the plethora of issues that remain?
