ALPA is helping you vote yourself out of a job, just as the automakers have. To much overhead. The whipsaw must continue if you want to keep the pay checks you have.
Nope, ALPA is helping protect our jobs. You are right however that the whipsaw will continue at Express. If we relax scope your time at express will be even longer. We tighten it and you come over here sooner. There will probably always be express but the smaller we can make it, the better for everyone.
