Have you ever heard the saying ‘Who’s at the Helm’?
It means who’s in Charge, in Command - who’s steering the ship (organization). A pretty important concept.
I’d say there are many among our ranks who believes the negotiating committee chairman (PM) is the person who is at the helm of our organization - he’s not, and shouldn’t be, and yet it appears like he is.
I’m appreciative of the updates we receive from the negotiating committee, but leadership starts at the top, and it’s kind of hard to rally around something when the person(s) who should be leading the charge aren’t … Leading.
Now go ahead and sling your mud and call me names and dismiss me as an angry man, but it doesn’t change the fact our leadership has been silent, as was pointed out by others.
I went and checked my emails to verify. The number is 6. Since 8/26 I have received 6 communications from the union. They included communications from the SPSC, NC, Council Reps, Positive Rate and NC two more times. That’s just in the last 11 days including a holiday weekend in which communications came out. Although some notorious posters said it wouldn’t…..
As someone who did union work at a previous legacy I can tell you the union isn’t one or two people. It’s an entire pilot group. This includes us rank and file pilots on the line. The rank and file hold the power not the union volunteers. We are in this position because most of our rank and file are selfish. They look at everything through a lens of what’s best for me. Even though they have been asked to stand up and “hold the line” in numerous communications. They approach this job from a subcontractor mentality.
