I’ve never used one penny of dues money on alcohol in my 36 years. I’ve always opposed hospitality suites. You can search the record. 90% of my union work I did for free. No flight pay loss. You?
How many years were you a rep?

So when you were at the Board of Directors meeting and in the hospitality suite during the National election debacle you did it all on your own nickel? How noble. No alcohol either. You should have drank up, I heard it was good stuff and lots of it.

Seems like you’re being a bit disingenuous with the FPL thing too. The 10% of the union work that you were compensated for, what was that coded under?

As for me, I’ve never held any position at Delta ALPA. $0.00 FPL or other compensation.
Just an interested bystander.

My beef isn’t with you. I consider you a minor league hanger-on. My gripe is C16 and the grandstanding that’s not living up to the trough swilling. The post you jumped in on.

Don’t you have a 30k hospitality suite to freeload at? I guess not, since your team got kicked to the curb.

Maybe go put in some time revamping the DPA website. It’s not looking very super premium.
Nothing going on in CVG?

I would gladly take more reps like those in council 16 versus my reps in 44. At least the west coast reps are advocating FOR our pilots. Look at what our ATL reps have done recently. The chairman wasted thousands of our dues dollars in filing a frivolous lawsuit against a fellow pilot. Our vice-chairman celebrated the death of a line pilot. It’s beyond belief that they were ever elected.

Lawsuit?! That sounds like it isn't remotely true

Wrong. My first attempt at a response was censored so...

Name your price to renounce your religion/politics/ethics.

Socialite: "My goodness, Mr. Churchill... Well, I suppose... we would have to discuss terms, of course... "
Churchill: "Would you sleep with me for five pounds?"
Socialite: "Mr. Churchill, what kind of woman do you think I am?!"
Churchill: "Madam, we've already established that. Now we are haggling about the price ”

So Rick Harper's family and work are both in CA but he's still running for rep in SLC? How does that work?

SLC guy for over a decade here. I’m 100% fine with that. When the company closed the ER base what were people supposed to do? Bid the 73 so they could be “real” SLC pilots? The smear campaign against Rick and co have showed an ugly, spiteful, juvenile approach to ALPA representation we’ve (mostly) avoided in this base up until now. I’ve read every email and source document both sides recommended and the stark difference in tone is abundantly clear to me.

These new to SLC guys claiming to have the solutions to every ill come across as cheap political attack ad characters. No thanks.

Its irrelevant, that's how it works.

Every base has lots of commuters. Are they all locked out of being reps? If so, why? Even if a majority of that base's pilots want them to be?

He's not a commuter though, he's based in LAX and he and his family lives in LAX. I'm glad he's found a situation that works for him, but how does an LAX based pilot who lives in California qualify him to be a SLC representative?
