There is alot about ALPA that irks me, but not sure this is the best time to start changing representation.
Fear is why we are in the position we are in today. Too many important decisions have been made based on it. Ask yourself, is our current union fundamentally flawed and beyond repair? Are they representing you? If the answers to those questions are Yes and NO then it is better to fix the problem now. There is plenty of time to prepare for section 6. Please don't base your vote for independent on this hurry timeline ALPA is trying to create. They did the same thing with the joint contract. How did that work out for us? BK wages, weak scope, weak retirement. Don't fall into the same trap. Whined the clock. When you hurry up, you usually **ck UP.
