We all are doing what is best for each of us, and we are not a true "brotherhood"....If we were, we wouldn't require our "brothers" to give up their longevity and seniority with a change of uniform....
I see a lot of pot's calling the kettle black and wanting other pilots to fall on their sword for the "industry".
Joe, I never was in an elected nor an appointed position for ALPA. It is my goal to change that.
I went to DAL because it is where I wanted to be. As with you my seniority was high enough that I was a CA long before this latest plague of RJs hit. I was hired at EV with a seniority number of less than 630.
I did not like what was happening at DAL when I was at ASA, and I do not like it on this side of the fence either. It is my goal to change this career and industry vector. We are driving ourselves in to the ground.
One way or another there is going to be a reckoning in this industry. Either to lower lows, or we will change it. If it keeps going this pace, many will just jump ship.
