Talk like this should be condemned more severely than the "quit negotiating in public" mantra.

JMHO

edit....beat me to it chrisreed
This x100. The midst of negotiations is not the time for splintering. Let’s get a TA and go from there. The union needs volunteers, get involved.

I do know the couple times I reached out about volunteering some technical expertise (sanity checking things they were claiming about Trainer Refinery and pipelines, I used to be the Regional Chief Engineer for a Refinery and Pipeline service company, Delta was claiming some borderline BS) I was poo pooed after being asked where I live and how long I'd been at Delta.

Genuinely curious about which MEC administration this was.

Exactly this. Go to any other pilot forum and you will see that there is always a segment that thinks the problem is the organization acronym and not the elected leaders that are the reason for any outcome.. That being said, certainly some organizations are gonna give you a better chance for success due to resources etc, but 90% of the time it is the people you put in office.

It’s not the organization. It’s always the people. Changing orgs is idiotic. The people are the ones who either eff things up or don’t show solidarity and don’t vote or represent. Yes. Look at the crap show that’s APA. ALPA is the best org for us. We have to be better at solidarity and at holding our reps accountable. Are you wearing your lanyard. Did you vote. Did you picket? Many factors that many ignore. I guarantee you if we all wore lanyards and many more picketed and we all voted, we’d be in much better shape. Prove me wrong…

Wow, after reading that, all I can say is I'm very thankful that guy isn't our new MEC Chairman. What a pathetic embarrassment.

Well at least nobody was assaulted and no broken bones, hospital visits or lawsuits. I call that progress.
