Alpa Pins...wear them. Our early openers for the next contract are about 18 months away. Time to start showing unity. If you are not happy with Alpa due to the SLI, contract 2012, or whatever..wear your pin upside down, but wear it. There are <100 guys that CAN"T wear the pin, don't be a slick tie. Show unity.
PAC...NAI's scheme to fly under an Irish certificate (flag of convenience) is a BIG deal. You can help fight this and the next threat to our careers with an Alpa PAC contribution. Sign up for the Century Club ($8.34/mo), Capitol Club ($20/month), President's Cirlce ($41.67/month), or splurge for the the Behncke Cirle ($83.34/month). It's easy, cheap, and effective. In Washington, money talks, BS walks. Just do it!
That is all.
+1. People who persist on disunity and conflict are an issue. Flew with one last week...and he had the ballz to complain that the culture sucks. Well, then, help us change it, jackball. Complained about everything, all the time. Could not have been around a more miserable human in my lifetime. Get over yourself and realize how incredible your life is.
