HMP would have a valid argument if RJ's began flying freight that would have been normally carried by UPS. You see, HMP flies for UPS (cargo) and for reasons only she can't explain is attacking RJ pilots instead of management. I don't normally like to pile on or gang up, but I think HMP should give it a rest, or get her union behind her and picket the regionals. This is how that converstion would go
HMP: Mr. Union rep, we need to get some brothers and sisters together and picket those regional Jet companies.
Mr. Union Rep: Why on earth would I organize a strike against the regionals?
HMP: The RJ's are flying routes that could be flown by 737's.
Mr. Union Rep: You fly boxes, they fly people, how on earth does that affect you.
SOUNDS OF CRICKETS CHIRPPING.
HMP: TRYING TO COME UP WITH A VALID ARGUMENT.
Mr. Union Rep: Get out of my office and worry about issues that affect you and your brothers and sisters. Get off the backs of the regional pilots! They are just trying to earn a living.
