SkyBolt has been indoctrinating new hires since before C2010. How many times do I have to say it. He doesn't care about anyone's voice in dfw. It's a power play to rebalance power so he can off the negotiators to prove his point from last time. The history gets lost on many of the newer pilots we have.
As for the guy who created the petition, hopefully more pilots will wake up to his close ties to MN and other radicals who hide behind feel good statements like "one voice, unity" and draw comparisons to any airline that fit his agenda
Unfortunately, your only wanting to listen to things on your slant.
I can't speak for everyone, but I haven't been indoctrinated. I don't want to replace the negotiating committee at this time. After we see what we get? Sure, we can talk about it. If we get a failed ta? Sure, we can talk about it.
All that being said, I want an lec for Dallas. I want an lec for all bases that want one. Some bases are struggling with apathy and will never fight for one.
You may think this is a power struggle because of YOUR past politics, but all of you guys past politics are old. This is a whole new group. You guys are the minority and just because someone wants change doesn't mean we want to change back to something that YOU had before. I want to get rid of the old crap that has been dividing this group for a long time and bring in a professional union leadership. One that doesn't fight to hang on to some power it has. One that doesn't intimidate, be it at a pub event or for picking up open time. One that leads with a strong voice and with their own actions, but listens to the group. Isn't that what alpa is supposed to be?
The political power struggle is stupid and doesn't do anyone any good. I'm hopeful that as the group grows, we will find a strong membership who cares about the future. I'm hopeful that we might some day see past the old guard vs. new guard and try and actually work toward change for the better.
