I love you too, (Wo)man!!!!

Exactly my point. The ONLY way......THE ONLY WAY, for any union will keep their memberships is to figure out a way is to unite. And that way is the original way of unionism. Equality through LOS. This is the original principle under Benhke. But history is really lost on the many morons here that haven't read Flying the Line Vol. I and II.

History repeats itself. And pilots will never learn.

Because pilots are usually busy with their awesomeness! Have you never walked around DFW? Superior pilots are usually too busy acknowledging "lower life-form" pilots crossing their busy and exhausting daily path.

APA days are numbered.

Bootleg

Where are those "pdp" d-bags when ya need 'em?

You continue to make the point of our very demise being premised on pilots' individual greed and then you state your own "individual greed" - LOS.

Why is LOS such an important issue for you? Personal issue (greed)?

Not exactly the issue to unite pilots. Maybe you, but not the pilots (all).

My "greed" was brought about by the way I'm treated in relation to other pilots.

If you knew ANYTHING about unionism, you would KNOW that employees that belonged to union and would strike then the employer would hire strikebreakers. The strikebreakers, who had LESS OR NO TIME with the company would get jobs and promotions over the strikebreakers. Hense the strikebreaker (aka SCABS) had less LOS than the strikebreaker. So I bid against quite a few strikebreakers.

Why is LOS such an important issue....for ANYONE? Certainly you can't be that ignorant, let alone naive. But let's get rid of seniority and see what happens. There won't be any contract negotiations anymore because pay raises and working conditions will come ONLY from the company for the most part.

Look, I'm resigned to the fact that my LOS was stolen. I can live with it because my 6 years left here will fill my account nicely. I used to be for the "Junior" guy. In my own way, I still am. But if LOS is not to your liking than complaining on the forum is going to be the only thing you'll ever have. LAWA were junior guys, much of LAA was junior guys and they jumped in front of most TWA guys and LUS.

My enemy is APA, ALPA and the lies and promises of unionist doublespeak. I love this job, I love to fly and I love the people I work with. I can't stand the stupidity of most of the pilots here and I call them out on it.

See you at Norwegian.

HAIL HYDRA, Captain "America".

And another point on this. If you DON'T believe in LOS, then who controls the leverage when the contract comes up for renewal in 2020? I mean, i guess you don't care if the Company offers me a 787 Captain bid for more money than I'm making now but less money than a new contract would pay? Well, I'm going to do it because you don't believe LOS is important. Most of our fellow pilots would call that greed, but it's what they have done to us. Enjoy your career, CA

But I know why it's not important to YOU. As long as it hasn't happened to you it's ok. So when new hires get promoted over you out of seniority then let me know why you stay a bottom feeder. You're just a "snowflake" with NIMBY SYNDROME.

And even ANOTHER point, why don't YOU ask the others on this forum if LOS is an important issue for them? Really, how many of you reading this tripe DONT THINK LOS IS IMPORTANT? Either working for this airline or another airline? Be honest.
