So, I had the opportunity to assist in organizing on the Saab side of the house....and the Q. Double trouble for mgmt.

You're entitled to your opinion, of course; but, I've done more than my fair share trying to improve things around here...as have the other members of the OC, MEC/LEC's. In my opinion (since I'm still here and you're not....congrats on your escape, btw ), having OC members flying the Q provided a voice of reality to many of the brand new FO's. Keep in mind, mgmt was pumping these people full of all sorts of BS in an effort to prevent us from organizing. Instead, the few OC guys here, were able to debunk the BS and as a result, we have a very strong group on the Q.

Rest assured, things will change around here....payrates included. Better to lead the group from the front, than wait to make the move after things improve!
