The top down, Chairman is the Captain of the Ship thing departed the pattern with LM, and a stake was put through its heart after TA1. These days the position is basically an office manager.

I’m in favor of term limits but the turnover in the Dalpa MEC Chairmanship (as in no one being re-elected since I don’t remember when) has a bit disconcerting since the position is just an office manager...

If I have a lawn guy on a 12 month service contract, and I notice my neighbors lawn looks better, at the end of the contract, I’m probably going to consider my options.
Normal election cycle. It looks like the MEC felt someone could cut the lawn better without knocking off all the sprinkler heads or dumping the trash in the neighbors yard.

Whose lawn looks better than ours? United? I don’t think so. American? Highly doubtful. Possibly SWA? Maybe. I applaud the MEC and the MEC leadership for holding the line as well as they have during this pandemic.

The vacillation in MEC officers is probably a symptom of the narrow election margins. JA is the first to get a solid majority in a long time.

Do you hold an elected, appointed or volunteer position in ALPA/Dalpa?

I hope he doesn't respond.
Would it change your opinion if he was/wasn't? Other than a few out-sized posters here (looking at you, gzsg
), most of us probably participate because it's anonymous. Regardless of who he is, I'm glad he's here...just as I'm glad you're here...even without knowing your CV.
