The roadshows will be interesting. We’re at a point in time where labor actually has some leverage and most of us will likely never see it again for the rest of our flying careers. I suppose that’s why I’m most surprised at the shortcomings. Some further explanation from official channels is certainly desired.
The only thing I've gotten from my LEC is a notice of a meeting next Tuesday to present the TA.
Things move fast in the internet age. I've always been pleased with my LEC reps so I can wait until Tuesday. I'm not ready to try, convict and lynch my reps before they've had a chance to state their defense.
To give you an idea of how unhappy I am, I was pretty hammered last night after reviewing this TA. My wife is working today so I have a run of the house. And when it was 5 o'clock (happy hour) in Dubai, I was awake and started drunking again. So when my posts start to sound totally incoherent today, you know why.
