Isn't there a big IBT rally in Jersey you should be at or something?
Adolphus,
That "
unskilled laborer" might just use their body to block your cockpit from a terrorist, restart your heart with an AED, or stand behind you in a picket line, but that doesn't seem to mean much to you in the 1% club. Most think of them as part of the team, and it they're stronger, YOU are stronger.
But it is probably a waste of time to try to explain it to you... Hey, as long as you're represented....
And yes, as a proud trade unionist, like most of your fellow DAL cockpit crewmembers, I have attended ALPA, IBT, and IPA rallies along with nurses trying to organize. Most pilots would wear that as a badge of pride, and you can consider me one of them.
I would be proud to wear the APA pin in support for my fellow Americans, aviation workers, and Flight Attendants especially.
In Unity,
