"I'm tired of all this crap...and I'm not going to take it anymore!!!..."
Actually, I received several e-mails prior to the meeting that addressed this issue. The e-mails were from the MEC and were sent to every LEC 26 member that ALPA has an e-mail address for.
Also, apparently the person(s) who instigated the recall motion weren't too successful in getting the word out to like-minded members, were they?
IMO, the problem is that most FDX ALPA members do not take the time to read the e-mails that they are sent. They are way too busy *****ing on APC or FI.
Here is a thread on this very subject that ran for two weeks before the meeting:
