Common man! When people who work within ALPA say this stuff it makes me angry. No wonder management kicks our but at the negotiation table.
Perhaps Alpa's new slogan should be "getting the best from non paid volunteers". I want people who do negotiate and who do work to be PAID. We bring enough money in dues to pay people handsomely as they should be instead of it going to national. You think management asks schedules to volunteer their time to negotiate the pilots contract.
I never said they were viewable. Did I? The fact that he couldn't read them is exactly my point. He can only assume what others were asking for. And who gave up 33% of profit sharing? Where are those numbers from? It is also true more large RJs were allowed per C2012, but we also received a valuable domestic mainline to RJ BHR. Regional flying continues to decrease, while Mainline flying continues to increase. And while you angrily protest C2012, 62% of your peers voted YES. Shouldn't that make you question just exactly what your peers really were asking for?
