I honestly want to know in order to improve the condition that motivates you not to wear the lanyard. Personally, I am capable of thinking for myself and supporting the union's objectives whether I wear a lanyard or not. I'm also capable of voting down a part contract proposal either way. If ALPA has dis-served you at some point, then we need to know to improve ALPA's performance (I'm not an ALPA official).

My objective is to have everyone align on a "shared mental model" (hahaha) of what our profession ought to be like in terms of pay, work rules, regulations, testing, etc. This industry wide mental model needs to raise the standards of our profession beyond the gutter its in now.
