Gentlemen (ie. those arguing over Senior/Junior perspectives)...who needs Union Busting Managers to pin one group against the other when you are doing it yourselves during the best of times? The junior guys/girls need to be sensitive to those who have been at UAL for the last decade+ and have fought the fight on the turf you now occupy. The senior guys/girls have to understand that the majority of newer Pilots at UAL didn't just get their ticket yesterday and then strolled into this great contract. The majority have been slogging it out and fighting the same fight to preserve the integrity of our Profession but on different fronts, often in the midst of lesser pay and working conditions.

Save your energy and collective capital for the true enemy. Times are good now and we need to cultivate our value proposition during these profitable times. However, the time is coming when we will once again be fighting for our survival and, without solidarity, we will have nothing.
