I hated the shut up and color attitude of the Air Force and I am disappointed to see that same attitude at ALPA.
I think things are great. I love Delta I make good money and I get good time off, but I want more money and I want more time off. Lets actually fight for our improvements please. I want ALPA to stay but I fear if we don't see some fight in it the DPA will come roaring back.
Several questions. Where do you see that DALPA isn't fighting for the things you mentioned? Is a contract survey, and multiple emails requesting that our membership participate a "shut up and color" attitude? Is a Rotation Construction survey? How about lounge visits? Webinars?
Sitting behind a keyboard checking out insults and criticism, while failing to acknowledge improvements, is not trying to make things better.
