You sound like the former Skywest guy that rode in the jumpseat a little while back to SFO. He was all PROUD about coming from a non-Union carrier. That raised my eyebrows a little but the accusation that the female ALPA PAC volunteer that talked to his class intimidated and coerced a 100% participation rate. That was a little hard to believe - which I told this half-winger.

He has MGT written all over him........
You'd think he would be happy being at the big show but the way he talked about his rj days ...... *** LoL
