Our MEC has been projecting negativity and emitting the "doom and gloom" scenario since the inception of this whole debacle. Some say, "they just want to prepare us for the worst and hope for the best", or "they just want to make sure people's finances are in order". We are adults. If people's personal finances are not in order, especially during a time such as this, that is a problem inherent to the individual, not of concern to the rest of the pilot group, nor the MEC.

Our union should to be concerned with our CBA and making sure both us and the company abide by it; nothing more, nothing less. That is the capacity of their existence. They are not financial advisers or CPAs. I personally would appreciate it if they would stay in their lane and concern themselves with protecting our CBA. We are all inundated, around the clock, with the 'doom and gloom' of the SCAMdemic and do not need more negativity, presumptuous at that, coming to us from them.
