ALPA merger policy changed to cater to UAL, just because ALPA merger policy was followed(somewhat) doesn't mean the list is fair. You know it and so do I. Now I know the list will not change, but I am done with so called unity and done with anything ALPA. Strictly in it for myself, all decisions I make will be based on wether it helps me or not. Sad, used to not feel like that.
Somehow I'm not surprised. Good luck going forward. As a 737 F/O you've got a lot of career yet to live. Should be an interesting ride.
FWIW, ALPA merger policy changed to preserve ALPA. Nic couldn't happen again. Period. Your guy (Brucia) was there. Seriously, learn. Go ahead, be for yourself. There is a long history of that in this industry. You'll fit in just fine.
