Yeah, look at what happened at UA when their NC and MEC tried to sell the pilots down the river with the concessionary TUMI TA. The MEC recalls sent the company back pedaling pretty quickly. By and large I think expressing pilot expectations online is a good thing, as long as one doesn’t cross the line to publicly advocating illegal work actions which might get the pilot group in trouble. Otherwise the MEC might think you’d be willing to sell out all commuting reservists for a suitcase or something. Or screw over all the new hires for “leverage.”
