Yes, I vehemently object to office admin making 6 figured, paid by US, when we have many, many thousands of airline pilots still making a third or less than that.

There is zero justification for that. None.

I'm not saying office admin should work 18 hours a day with no bathroom breaks for minimum wage and obamacare. But let's not get too Bolshevik about it either. I'm fine with office admin making 6 figures paid for by us...just so long as all airline pilots represented by us make an appropriate level *above* that commensurate with the staggering disparity in education, experience, skill, liability and responsibility involved.

ALPA should not be paying office admin 6 figures in light of the many thousands of pilots it represents. Period.
