Go back to hiding under beds.
Your reputation here is already in the gutter.
Oh, and an important point to make. NJASAP does NOT need to blame anyone. The pilot group is smart enough to know exactly who to blame already: Weak members like yourself who can’t endure a tiny dose of short term pain for long term gain.
Again… the leverage isn’t there.
The union must find the proper leverage to exact results.
Using the playbook from 2005 at 121 isn’t working.
They’ll shrink the operation and charge more when attrition swells (680 and XLS mass retirement) and they’ll sell off at their short term pain to get long term gain. How’s that for peeing in the wind and calling it rain?? Our own strategy against us.
To blame anyone except themselves (especially anyone in the membership) for their own shortcomings is pathetic, cheap and undeserving of the dues we all pay. But many of us are expecting it.
But we’ve got a long history of assigning blame’s to scapegoats here don’t we? It’s the way of things with people like yourself who don’t think about things logically, only emotionally.
You can get mad at individual dues payers all you like… it doesn’t change the fact that maybe the dues payers are owed more in the form of better, more effective ideas to get this contract done.
2.5 E Days should have NEVER been agreed to. FDP plus 2.5 E Days were nothing but AJ setting the stage for where we are now.
But I’m sure that a 10 year deal with 2.5 E days is my fault too.
Checkers and Chess. Which are we playing?
