University age kids (so adults really). Let them know how Dad is paying for their school by trying to force concessions on people already on food stamps. It was back in 2012 before managements finally realized they'd screwed the pooch.

Justify your stupidity and your morality however you want. I was there in 2012. And 2002. And 1992. And 1982. Don't try to skate out of this by saying "things were different then." No.

You don't go after a mans family, whether his kids are eight years old or eighteen. What the god damn **** is wrong with you?

Don't try to tell me that's how the union used to do it. I was a negotiator. I was a business agent. I was a steward, yada, yada, yada. Been there.

If you're trying to negotiate, then you do it across a table. You mediate. You strike, if necessary. You picket. You don't go to a man's house, and you don't go after his family. We live in a day and age when people seem to think they can do whatever they want to get what they want, and to get it their way. Apparently you feel that way, too. It's wrong. You're wrong. You come on here talking about going after a mans family and then try to justify it?

It's ****ing wrong. It was never right, and it's not going to be right. Don't advocate it, don't suggest it. It's just ****ing wrong. If you don't know that, then you have a very serious problem.

I’m just here to warn everybody about this guy. Take everything he says with a grain of salt. He’s not known to give any useful information about just about anything.

Harassing strangers because you don’t approve of one of their relatives…

Would demonstrate only that the people doing it shouldn’t be employed by the company at ANY pay rate

I have to agree with JB on this one. Societal respect, custom and tradition aren’t bad things.

This is akin to the law that states one cannot attempt to intimidate a judge or juror by protesting at their home. The protestor can be put in jail.

Someone send cat poop to one of our management one time...didn't go over very well. There were some issues with hazardous waste if someone is pregnant. Went through the mail...if I remember the FBI got involved. You can't make this stuff up. Just saying.

Harassing strangers is a high risk proposition in this day and age.

"people seem to think they can do whatever they want"

you have never come across someone with literally nothing to lose have you. when you go five days without food you literally care about nothing else. most pilots are clueless as to how good they have it. heres how it works in other countries. did you make it through the day alive? then it was a good day. screw around and find out.

I'm still being haunted by the don't-care ghost, I see. Deranged, unhinged, and not in contact with reality, he admits to having stolen from employers, and claims he knew about covid ten years before anyone else, but kept it a secret. He's so far gone that worrying about him would be akin to taking offense at the mentally retarded. Let's just say he's so strong, and very brave. So, so brave.

That said, his post makes one question whether he's ever been outside the US. He has referred to "western women" as "worthless," so perhaps he's not from the "west." He's young, got little or no experience in the industry, and here seems to drop a veiled threat.

He can't read this, of course, as this post will be on his ignore list. Rightfully so. This poster has nothing good to say about him. So, "screw around and find out" means exactly what?

Perhaps he's not aware that most, if not all of those in this thread spend most of their lives working internationally.
