All those YES voters at Pinnacle are so stupid anyway for thinking only of themselves and not falling on the sward for all the other regional pilots. So many other majors and regionals went out of their way to hire and help out the Com Air pilots that lost their jobs. Didn't the Pinnacle pilots understand that ALPA would always be there for them? The same union (association) that allows members of one pilot group to negotiate jobs away from another pilot group. A union (association) that shall provide equal and fair representation among all its members (but more fair and equal for pilots at the majors). In today's environment it's easy and cheap to maintain currency when your out of work. I don't think currency will not matter in this non competitive industry and I am sure people and others like you will step aside to allow others that take a stand to get hired ahead of you. It's also big at the majors interview, (This pilot showed DAL what it means to be a regional pilot. His pilot group took a stand but failed and this pilot has been out of work and unable to pay to keep up currency. Lets go ahead and hire him anyway.) And besides all that there is soooo many other career fields available even though other highly qualified people have been out of work for years in those career fields. You know, that back up plan we're all supposed to have.

If you don't mind volunteering sir/mam I would like to call ALPA to hire you as a negotiation and career consultant. You obviously have more of a clue then those ignorant and naïve Pinnacle pilots.
