Well, That's your opinion and you are certainly entitled to it. While I do wear my ALPA pin, I have seen an up-tick in L CAL pilots who are now throwing them in the trash after years and years of proudly wearing them. This entire process and absolutely decimated any feelings of goodwill, and unity that were on the horizon for us. It's people like you, a young padoin learner who has yet to master the ways of the force who needs a lesson. Perhaps you should ponder Master Yoda: Fear is the path to the dark side, Fear leads to anger, and anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering.

Clearly you are suffering from the brain surgeon mindset with your "I am the gift to commercial aviation" mindset. The "all about me" syndrome is something for sure CAL never invented. We were kicked around by Debbie McCoy and Fred Abbot way too long to buy into your garbage. Meanwhile, while you're in your surgical suite....... You get it don't you? Probably not.

The pin means absolutely nothing if "fair and equitable" aren't really taken seriously by all players. You got yours right. Attaaaa-baby!
