Ok, judges throw contracts out....then companies impose new ones...don't like it? Strike...wait, can't....Judges block alpa action. What can alpa do? It's one thing when a judge blocks strikes, but there's gotta be another way to protect contracts, workrules, and return our jobs to a higher standard of professionalism. Companies drag out negotiations in mediation (see Pinnacle and ASA management) and we can't do a thing...FRUSTRATING! Is there a way to regain some controll/leverage. Is alpa too nice? What should/can we (as alpa) do? All professional airline pilots that are rep. by alpa are inherently alpa. So what can we do? Ideas anyone?
