jetBlue guys-
Those of you who read these boards regularly will know that I am extremely critical of ALPA.
The national headquarters makes a lot of mistakes and they spend way too much money.
Some of the things their lawyers do make me want to scream.
But-
I would strongly urge you to vote yes for ALPA.
Leave emotion out of it. Disregard the hundreds of criticisms that can legitimately be leveled at ALPA. This is strictly a financial decision. There is no question in my mind that your career earnings and benefits will be vastly improved if you have ALPA representation. That is the bottom line.
ALPA will get you and your family more money than a "direct relationship".
My 2 cents.
