I've had my own gripes with the union as I'm sure we all have. However, his are more personal because he simply doesn't get his way.

To correct the record, I am not in block 22. I have never recalled or had an agenda item to consider recall of a rep, but I should have. If you are referring to the agenda item to consider article eight charges, well I pulled that agenda item the day before and replaced it with a motion to have the MEC admonish the block four rep for disclosing executive session material. That motion failed (turns out they had already done that so good for them). I have since received two official letters confirming the dissemination. I consider that event over. Others keep wanting to bring it up. So go ask your friend the MEC chair as he is authorized to disseminate the information.
As for the blue falcon comment, show me where I have ever not had the best interest of all the pilots as my guiding light. You may disagree with me, or fear your good deal might be eroded, but I stand behind my words. No I don't always get it right, but who does, at least I am trying to push it up.
So are you going to ask for our "ask" to improve or not? Stay focused on improving our contract.
Hate me later, there will be plenty of time for that after improving every pilot's contract as much as possible, let's not leave one nickel on the table this time.
It was a typo. Why you mean well, I think you are causing division and problems for the union. I know you heard them say, "Social Media is our number one problem and please, no rumors. No negotiating in public."
