Couple of things-
I was a SecTres of a local council so I do have "an idea what being an ALPA rep is all about".
Complain.. yupe!
I was taught a very valuable lesson from a One Star General a long time ago-
Everybody *****'s. But not everybody *****'s and offers solutions. I have always offered solutions to my complaints ever since.
I will continue to have my own personal opinions IF elected.. but
IF elected, my job is to be the voice of the NYC Council 5 pilots, upwards.
Whoever the First Officer who wins this election,
their job is to listen and follow the will of their pilots. It's not suppose to work the other way around (my opinion), where the Rep tells the pilots what is going to happen. [That is, when they even communicate with the pilots].
Please explain to me what "things that just don't really matter".. means?
Also, what does "man up" mean?
As I've stated before, I'm running to represent the Pilots... Comm and Unity are what I'm running on.
Also, I am asking for my fellow pilots nomination right now. I want to get on the ballot so we can have a direct election.
Put the questions out there to the candidates and see how they answer-
At the end of the day, no matter what happens, I'll sleep well. I stepped up and kept my word to run.
