You sound like the troll to me and the majority of those who have taken this survey (and the union surveys- the surveys that leadership actually follows). The majority agrees with union leadership. I do agree that most are removed from reality, but it is the reality that they themselves need to provide the leverage to achieve the results that they are asking for from the union leadership. We have a lot of pilots that are angry that we haven't been offered much better, but they themselves refuse to stop extending, stop working the busier schedules, avoid using PTOs, avoid gking to or sponsoring other to attend pickets, stop doing the company's job and not just their own- all the things that lead to getting a better offer. You are the one not listening to the "smart, balanced logical points" that the union leadership uses to explain why they didn't entertain putting this out for a vote. There is a new union survey right now. Maybe the majority will back your ideas. If not, you will continue to be very disappointed.
