Just connect the dots for me. Here is what you said that I'm trying to understand, "
Serving ALPA is about ALPA's best interest. Pay rates are duesable. Your QOL is not. I am going to bet we will again give up QOL for money, Just like '15. Anyone here like working harder for the same credit hours?"
Do the MEC reps serve ALPA or the pilots' best interest? If it's ALPA, how does duesable income benefit our mec reps, as you insinuate? The reps are all insured by ALPA, so why would they worry about a handful of line pilots suing ALPA? Being sued is a foregone conclusion anyway. So why would a rep care if they are simply following their duty of fair representation, which a TA with membership ratification does in its most simplistic way.
To be honest, to me it sounds like you are taking this personal or are too close to it to see that you may just be a hammer that sees everything this MEC says or does as a nail.
