I am just repeating what ALPA told me when I asked about the bennies.
I just did not make this crap up on my own.
I also stated in my second quote that, I could be wrong. Alas an opening. As previously stated, I am using words spoken to me in the first person to come up with this stance. I did not pull it out of thin air, and furthermore, it is not a rip on ALPA.
I was told that we are afforded this as a benefit, but we can not dictate how it is managed at the current time. I then asked if we would spell out the level of benefits in a future contract, and was basically told no. It is not worth the time.
Again, not my words.
I will give you though that I should have read my last quote through and spell checked. I did not.
