This is the one thing that would truly worry me about DPA. I hope the motivations are for the reasons that have been expressed by most here, but ALPA being the political machine that it is, and when some of those upper echelon guys get hurt they tend to want to strike back. I don't know that this is not one of those instances. I sincerely hope it is not, because I donot want to become another USAPA... A this point in time, it is probably the one thing that is keeping me from sending in a card. I am willing to give the new alpa president a month or so to at least make some noise about cleaning house, or I will send one in by then. I want to hear about some ****ed off secretaries and AV operators in Herndon... (and if any of them are reading this: sorry folks... just the way it is.. we all had lots taken from us, and your QOL hasn't changed.... I guess it really DOES roll downhill.... )
