I’ve managed to make a single LEC meeting because I happened to have that day off- all the others I’ve been working. Hard to “just get involved” when I can’t even attempt to bid the days off. Same with this upcoming MEC meeting. Would be nice to have some kind of idea who was running to replace MH and who I could at least attempt to persuade my reps to vote for.
Am I just missing some portal or newsletter or something?
Honestly, the LEC reps (when they are not being recalled en masse) are served better when participation is low. Late meeting notifications, lack of zoom (or similar formats) are just a way to make it so it’s the same few people High fiving, punching or yelling at each other.
Occasionally there might have been a notice more than a month out, but i certainly can’t find one on alpa’s site.
