Anybody still hitching their cart to that horse? TheManager, anything to add? Care to send TC a message that we're over this BS and ready to move forward together towards C2015?
Btw, for those that didn't read the True headings, the crux was there was a mandatory IRS rule applied to an annuity that resulted in a large imputed income amount being listed on the form that DPA was referencing. Lee didn't see an extra penny, much less the 48% pay bump they claim.
So much for them putting in "hours of research on your behalf." <------Direct quote from the opening paragraph of the DPA Crew Van News/Lies...
Well, LL, your reading comprehension is now suspect as demonstrated by your post above. I've been an ALPA member for close to 25 years now. I support them. I also know they need to change, or tweak a few things to keep up with the times and issues we live with today.
Allow me to refresh your recollection, L2.

Isn't DuhWayne Worthless an Industry Lobbyist now?

An SOS should have happened long before the US Air pension grab. ALPA should have protected the CAL pilots jobs when they went on strike in 1983, and the EAL pilots jobs in 1989, when they stood up to Frank Lorenzo.
But, Frank Lorenzo was a Houston business man, and one of his good friends was (and still is) George Bush Sr.
My reply to Timbo.
Sadly, it will never happen now. I checked in on Ben's board last night and threw up a little in my mouth.
Apparently Lee Moak had 1,278,000 reasons not "to rock the boat at national" last year, or probably ever.
I am an ALPA supporter, but that is obscene and indefensible. Before that little bomb shell went off I would have said DPA was in grave condition on life support and drifting into the dirt nap.
That movement just snapped out of it and sat up straight in bed while yanking out the IVs. Phuque! Just when I thought they were in the death swirl in the bowl and gonna be gone.
Why is this bad? Here's why!
That little Moak nugget set back any chance at unity building for a long time. So much for getting our $hit together before section 6.
So ****ed I'd kick the dog if I had one. Might have to let the cat out back instead. There are a set of hawks building a nest in one of my palm trees!
I have not read the True Headings. I hope there is a great explanation to diffuse this. That would be great.
What would have been excellent is getting out in front of the issue with a True Headings. How about having the numbers broken down with explanations before TC and followers could exploit it.
