Why do you have to make this personal?

I am not saying we couldn't have got more, but you saying we're doing nothing for the industry is just stupid. Half of our pilots have come from your so well respected alpa carriers and that's why it is so hard to get anyone to even look at a union here. If alpa ever actually makes progress with the regionals it represents it might be different, but until then I'll keep my 2% while they take pay cuts for aircraft.
That's precisely why I put the word "nothing" in quotation marks. All TAs get compared to everything else. You can get more, especially in your anemic benefits, retirement, and some work rules.
As for ALPA, I didn't say anything about ALPA. But if you think places like Mesa, TSA, gojet, envoy, and XJT would be better off without a union, then you are dreaming. Just as you guys could do better with a union. It doesn't even have to be ALPA or 2%. But alas, you guys will continue to roll over when you actually have more than any other regional pilot group could ever dream of getting.
