While such behavior (working near max hours/mo) is legal, it's not that much different than what scabs have done. Had UALALPA insisted on less hours/mo, the furloughs wouldn't have been nearly as deep.
As far as the vote on the furlough fund, you and I know that it barely squeaked by.
NO, you can't equate that to a SCAB action.
The SCABS will always be in a undesirables group along with pedophiles, women beaters, rapist, drunk drivers and pilot representatives that push for actions that benefit themselves at the expense of the collective group. No redemption or forgiveness for this group.
The SCABS that were allowed in the LCAL group will always be SCABS but you have to question why they elect to wear that ALPA pin knowing exactly WHO THEY ARE and WHAT THEY DID. It's for one reason only and that's to hide what they did. They could care less about you, your family or belonging.
BenS wrote a scathing letter to returning furloughed LUAL pilots to Houston LCAL. Essentially threatening them for not socializing with SCABS. As professionals, we do our job and deal with the SCABS. the company or a rogue ALPA leader can not threaten our job for not socializing with any undesirable, specifically SCABS.
