Agreed, but look at the individual. I'm JC and I've committed my energy and effort to service to others as a Membership guy. I did a stint of representation at TK when no one else would run 25 years ago. Our Chairman in C33 resigned and I banged the phones of Denver pilots known to be well qualified and experienced enough to fill the remaining 2 years. To no avail.
I can't make pilots get involved in service to others - but I can and will urge them to stay informed, fly the contract, stay professional, and let the MEC deliver a great contract for ratification. We work for you, no secret Calamari Club, no unwritten code or agenda - we work for you and serve at YOUR pleasure.
