I just wanna say, seriously, that I genuinely appreciate EJ, coming on here (or anywhere else for that matter) telling everyone that takes issue with our contract, pointing out management failures and lack of ethics etc, that they “don’t know how the RLA works”, that we really have no leverage, that, the reason people are leaving and going to other carriers is I guess because they’re just chasing a buck and that “just you wait, when there’s another 9/11 they’ll WISH they could be part of Alaska Airlines.”

I appreciate him because, he highlights our greatest obstacle as a union… clearly, concisely and with the condescension expected of someone who’s only contribution will be a “No” vote they can hang their hat on.

Hoping there’s more of us than him.
