If either side of the LUS equation feels the LAA pilots got too good of a deal (something at or very close to the AAPSIC's proposal), both will hate the LAA pilots while STILL at war with each other as regardless of that, one side at LUS is going to get the shaft (Nic/no Nic). TWA will have a chip on their shoulder to they all go horizontal and our leadership is a directing a rudderless ship shouting from the shore. The biggest detriment of all is the abject apathy most of the pilots demonstrate.

Doug and Jerry will manipulate us and get us to take ourselves with virtual certainty at our next Section 6.
And another guy(or gal) on the other forum (where I occasionally lurk) posted this a few days ago. Seems (s)he thinks Agency fees (mandatory dues) will be going the way of the "dodo bird". How many gals/guys will be paying union dues next year if what (s)he posts is right? Where is the unions source of money going to come from then??? Heres the quote: (I'm just the messenger boy...)
