It's absolutely the union leadership's responsibility to organize. That is their job! Whipsawing is absolutely rediculous when we are under one union umbrella. The lessons should have been learned, and contingencies set to prevent a repeat of such management shenanigans. ALPA overall needs to stop this silo mentality within its sub-group and act in unity. I already let our union know how I feel, but they should have been on top of this.
I agree with this. It almost seems like our union leadership is running scared for some reason. Not sure if it fear that the flow would be interrupted, retribution from management to leadership of the union or what.
Things to be done other than conference calls and emails to the members about how yet another issue is won by management.
