We have some guys in the union that are facing furlough too. It's not an elite club of super senior captains that are conspiring against the junior guys.

I don't agree with everything the union is doing, but they are our only voice against the company at the moment. Anyone here during the strike realizes the benefits of supporting our union and sticking together as one voice. If you want the union changed, participate in the vote and the process will find our new leaders.
