I would really appreciate if someone could explain to me how some people come to the conclusion that ALPA is essentially our enemy?! I've been in the business for quite awhile and realize there is always that percentage that always feels this way (sourgrapes our own ALPA hating chairman). "ALPA rolled over" "buying votes" "smoke and mirrors", blah blah blah! These guys negotiating the contract have to live under the same contract, so why would they push anything they felt was garbage? I'm not an ALPA cheerleader nor hater, so don't really have an agenda. Lets just say I'm a seeker of truth (yeah I know.....why ask on the internet)! If anybody has SOLID examples how ALPA truly "sold them down the river" I'd like to hear them. Please prove to me how naïve I am and how all my dues are a complete waste!
