If the 1979 in your name in anyway implies your age, you have alot to learn about this industry and your career D'angelo, er, I mean CR1979.
What happened? Did you screw something up that was so blatent that your union wasn't able to help you out? You know, like call in sick and then non-rev to Hawaii on a work day, or try to sit airport standby from home? You tried to have your union save you and they couldn't because you so obviously screwed up and thought you were immune?
Go read Flying the Line I and II and then get back to us.
