As a good thing, I would say he is responsive. However, the content and tone of his message is that of talking to a chief pilot (management).
He has not shown me he's a pilot advocate - yet. One question I asked recently was where he stands when MOU 21-01 runs out. What's he going to advocate? Crickets. I did get boilerplate "DALPA is against mandatory vaccinations". OK, great, but how are you going to protect those of us who are not going to get jabbed AFTER 1 Nov. There is more than one of us. It's not a small number. Again, crickets.
There are other examples, like reserve rules, coverage awards and the litany of things we like to ***** about contract wise. This isn't a regional, where he "served" before. I don't think he has very good grasp of DAL history with the pilot group and our contract evolutions. JM did.
28% turnout, certainly not a mandate. I guess I should expect this from now on.
JMHO.
Well what if he said, "hey man, we're going to fight this but the company legally gets to tell us to get a vax. Obviously we will put lawyers on it but I'm not a magician. Im told the law is settled, let me give you every possible option on ways you might qualify to not take the vax, but no union can change settled law."
