Amen Albie!!!

I have already had about 7 years in the ALPA pool and am still waiting for the pruning to go away. Besides it may take a few more years to convince my wife to keep a towel warm for me. Few people really understand the level of committment of an LEC Rep or MEC Officer. It is a 24/7 job at times and can take it's toll on your family as well. I don't miss the conference calls while I'm trying to teach son to water ski, or the last minute meetings during my daughters figure skating performance, or the dozens of daily emails and voicemail messages.

Being a Rep is a tough and often thankless job. I sincerely thank each and every one of you that is willing to make the sacrafice, even those that I stongly disagree with. Best of luck Albie, I think that you will do a fine job!!!
