Caution. I think this is poor form on your part. And poor CRM.
Look at your words here. Ponder whether you'd say this to your captain, or, when you upgrade, to your FO?
"You may be able to convince yourself that you are voting for a greater cause. I am simply telling you that you probably aren't bright enough to vote on behalf of anyone but yourself. So please do that."
To the best of my knowledge, I don't know who you are talking to. But it is snarky.
You may have occasion to call me to task for similar remarks in the future, like right now, but you diminish your cause. At least under this pseudonym that you are using. I haven't heard a pilot say this sort of thing on the line. Where did you work before you got hired here?
I'm left with the impression from almost everything you've written that you aren't, in fact, a pilot. Almost everything you've written under this alias, at least. I think you have a few others also.
Are you a lawyer-by-day, attempting to persuade us, pilots-by-night?
We are gutsy, but not cavalier. But, you?
Oh please. Are you even a FedEx pilot, with a big two posts behind your belt? If so, what are the odds that you're a current poster, just starting with a different account, in order to attack someone?
If you have actually read any more posts than you have made, you would notice that Rock is one of more fair minded, reasonable posters, whether one agrees with his position or not. But at some point, when attacked enough, anyone can get angry and defensive.
If you are trying to prevent people from being rude and snarky, I commend you. However, you need to keep reading, because you have a long ways to go. There are many comments on this forum that are far more offensive. However, perhaps you are just calling out someone that has a different opinion on the TA than you?
