Those are just facts. You can ignore them, or quibble them into a manageable mush you expect others to swallow - but the simple truth is ALPA was successful and the independent unions weren't...right there where you worked.
Wrong! ALPA told you that you could honor the picket line and would not be subject to discipline. You had the opportunity to honor the picket line, but you would not have been paid for the trip.
You crossed.
Deal with it however you choose, but don't EVER tell another Delta pilot that they don't "get it"! Pre-merger Delta pilots have never crossed a picket line. You have. On your property.
Get it?
The same AMFA who's public stance was that during our negotiations that the pilots were overpaid and should take a pay cut and walked over $60/hr for aircraft cleaners when the package for the Mechs was a fairly substantial raise?
Your Tough Guy talk is pretty thin from a group that (to the best of my knowledge) has never had a strike on the property, and never even turned down a TA
