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.................
Pleasse don't support us. Good luck at your airline. Either at United were unfortunetly things aren't looking to good or NWA where you are getting screwed by the Delta guys or at Delta where it will be a long process intergrating that seniority list with two work groups that don't like each other. That is if you even work for any of those companies.
You can hate CAL that is fine, but I'm sure that which ever airline you work for they have their problems too.
