It's not worth fighting you guys on here, too many keyboard warriors. You have LEC 18 elected rep "Ralph" slinging mud and personal attacks, very professional. You have the other same 6 logins on here that create new names anytime there is a group trying to make the union accountable. I will just agree to disagree, you won't change my mind by insulting me, and I obviously won't change yours. If we could ever just have a constructive dialogue on here, this forum could be a lot more useful.
I will just simply restate my position, we want accountability and transparency in our union. Many of us wanted a change in NC so as not to repeat 2010. Since that is not happening, we decided to take a more constructive course. ALPA is always saying they need membership to take charge and be their voice in the union, we did. We have done something that brings many together on one issue, we also did this to support the NC efforts. The company will have a hard time stalling once this is presented. Whether the NC or MEC is happy about it or not, it will be acknowledged in our first round of mediated talks, this is a fact. I hope that they jump onboard and use this powerful tool of unity on one subject. I see the petition has 278 supporters now, basically 20% of the pilot group has signed on to support their NC and send a clear message to management that we will not be stalled in our effort to get a fair contract. One last thing, I signed first because I am proud to sign this petition, we are bringing into the fray many here who have never felt represented. This petition in no way is advocating any recall or change of NC, that is why it is so powerful. Now if those in charge do not take heed of the pilot's will, then steps will be taken. Have at it and tear me apart, I think I have made my point clear, so for now I am signing off to take a break from the constant fighting on this forum, good luck to us all.
