Look...the LEC works for everyone in blocks 2, 5, and 7. You get to vote for the block rep in each block. That's the system.
I just find it ironic that a guy would spend 3/4 of his intro letter boasting about his long association with the NC and Mike Arcamuzi, the current block 2 rep. Both gentlemen have a long record of doing a lot of great work for the union. IMHO...they also have a recent history of lip service to national on the age 60 issue and a horrible job on this LOA.
Want someone who plays nice with others? Cory was a P2P guy for a while. He's probably your man. Want somebody who who will point out this guy is boasting about being on a team that ushered an embarrassing substandard deal? Then pick me. Your choice. I just spent the last 4 hours teaching my youngest daughter to ride a horse around the ring. Not getting elected won't be the end of me--I'll be quite happy spending my free time pursuing my own hobbies and interests. But I'm not going to sit here and listen to guys complain about how the union failed us on these issues, then suggest we vote in someone because of their "union experience".
And by the way--I'm sure Mike Williams and the Anton gentlemen are fine pilots and great guys. The performance of the NC on the LOA, however, is an embarrassment. I'm not sure I want the guys who defended that POS calling the shots. We got 8 volunteers out of 4700 with their great deal...and a company now acting ulilaterally around the union to sweeten the pot. Is THAT what you want down the road?
