I noticed in the union rag that ALPA mentioned this new program. I also notice that ALPA didn't rip into it. ALPA just minded their business....nothing to see here. Quiet as a church mouse. What is the Safety Committee saying about this stuff?
ALPA just keeps collecting dues money. Like big time! I don't think we even need P2P, or other programs designed to organize and motivate pilots into action. Likely, we just need to outsource that to management. Since they apparently pull the strings in Herndon and in Rosemont anyways.
It's a shame that our own union can't/won't advocate for people "earning" their way into the profession by hard work and personal/individual accomplishment and achievement.
All the white guys in management and in union office should just resign. Might as well let them staff it all up how they want it.
