2nd paragraph, I will agree my delivery can be terrible and appreciate that you find most of my message to be correct.
I do not agree that the only way to support our pilot group with credibility is to attend a single event even if working at the time of the event. And the MEC has also never said that. Having said that, I wanted to be there, I thought I was going to be able to get out of my trip, my plan didn't work.
Having said that, I would use a different strategy next time.
Apologies for the epic stupid reply. Thanks to those that did sacrifice to be there. See you at the next most likely.
I think I was pretty clear that those that couldn’t make the picket didn’t lose any credibility. Just those that come on message boards and talk a big talk, while calling out fellow pilots, but then don’t back it up with actions. Obviously 3500 guys can’t all have the day off. Though that day may come.
