I'm so glad we're back to US vs. THEM....
We went through the same stuff. Our GOM says company approved lanyard, ALPA gave us a bright orange lanyard, and most of us wore it. The company slapped some wrists and that’s it. The union represents the pilots, so if that is the union lanyard, then that’s what it is.
But that’s a really sorry attempt at a jab. This Canadian aggression tactic NJASAP takes with management hasn’t worked, and still won’t work. Management will fire back and the union will cower, all it will cost the pilots is dues.
Oh and if management wants to make a lanyard mandatory, they gotta change the uniform policy which last time I checked, couldn’t be done without a vote, so the union should be figuring out what they want in return for no peaceful protest lanyards.
