I'm tired of our senior leadership pleading with us to support an organization that turned on loyal supporters. Perhaps our leaders at ALPA National can explain why we should sell our soul as rank & file to support that which has been built upon by loyal dues paying members & enjoyed by scabs. I don't buy the story that "that happened before I arrived on the property". You know what you are buying into when you are hired or cross the line. ALPA continues to lose credibility with the line pilot when it insists we forget the past & go along with what they say is best for us all. Try raising a family on such pervrese logic. ALPA's credibility continues to crumble in the USA. See who is leaving, see who is joining, see who is rock solid in remaining in ALPA & you will see that the very fiber that truly makes up a real union is missing in ALPA.................
Where do you work? So I got hired here two years ago, and I'm just as bad as a scab? I'll tell you right now after working here two years, that I'll be damned if I would ever cross the line. No job is worth it. There are about 600 scabs at CAL and I look forward to every retirement.
