And the company had an sh- fit and IBT had to walk it back. Almost got him fired from the company IIRC.

If a current leader made this rookie mistake again that's unbelievable.

That sort of thing doesn't happen with ALPA because they all get training and the legal team makes sure nobody says anything stupid that could give the company their wet dream of an injunction and hostages taken. I don't understand why Airline Division hires crackpot attorneys and shoots from the hip in official communications. I wonder if the UPS drivers side is more professional.
HAHAHA! Hey, a "Margarita" every now and then is great bro! Everything in moderation of course hahaha. Welcome back

Wonderful news, we start the lunch hour to an email stating that we now have brought APA 2118 into the 21st century. Our team of experts has developed an app where we can quickly access the most important tools to help guide us in our work as professional pilots: Forum, Documents, Announcements, and a contact list.

The caveat? While facing increasing pressure to produce results, it appears they have only launched the Beta version. To my knowledge, nobody has been able to access the app to this point. Additionally, numerous appear to now be locked out of the website. We’ve already waited 12 months for results from this trustee, when he finally decided to make an effort on delivering improvements, he panicked and provided a half-baked app that reeks of amateur production.

Some features which would have been tremendously helpful:

-Airport Info Tab— Door Codes, Food, KCM Directions, other useful items.

-Jumpseat Guide— who to list on, how to list, when to list, grooming standards, etc.

-Emergency Hotline— A hyperlink that immediately takes you to a call with the emergency hotline.

-Seniority List— A list of active and inactive seniority list members, preferably with an email or phone number (opt in by each pilot).


Oh wait, it’s almost as if this app is already in existence. Just drop the IBT and replace it with ALPA. GASP—the horror.

Ah Tommy, if you would actually read, you’d see I state multiple people! But I digress.

Let me make this clear, Greg Unterseher is using due paying members of Local 2118 as pawns in his effort to create leverage that has evaporated on his watch. It is incredibly sickening that he would stoop to this level.
Unterseher is an absolute scum bag who is a huge reason why World Airways closed its doors. He and his IBT cronies wore blinders and overestimated their position which cost a couple thousand people their jobs when the company shut down.

I would say he’s going to read this and feel bad, but he’s the type of as*hole who would f*ck over his own family to pick up another dollar.

Every FO I fly with, I make it clear just how much money they are losing. When you tell a 20 something year old that each year GU is costing them almost $1,000,000 their eyes get a little concerning. It won’t ever be made up.

Complaining without offering a solution of your own is called whining.

I'll jump in. Reading comprehension really isn't your strongsuit, is it?

I made a solution clear as day, that's ALPA. I turned in my card, did you?
