You’re right. He should be more aware of the way the RLA works. Are you willing to educate people like him, or are you trying to bring him down? Does it make you feel like a real man to talk down to folks? If you really cared about this pilot group, you’d educate instead of denigrate.

Do you actually read anything official, or is your total source of information on APC/Jetflyer?

Do you have any idea how many times the Union has published a flow chart of the RLA process? You don't even understand the essential truth of one team vs the opponent and espouse the so-called greatness of the opponent continuously. Do you even consider how backwards your logic is bashing the team working for you while publicly praising the other team who is trying to limit your contractual improvements? You defy any common sense or fundamental logic.
I don’t eat crap, or tolerate it from dorks like you. I live in a beautiful lake-front home. that is when i’m not at my beach house.

I don’t adopt nor have I ever adopted the opponents position.

tell me, fdx1, Mr Smith, how did you vote in 2015? how many posts are there with you supporting that TA?

Why do you believe FDX should have an industry leading contract over DAL or UAL? Do you consider yourself better than them? Is it an entitlement issue? Do you fly better than them? Do you believe a pilot blocking 300-400 hours a year is better than the pilot blocking 800 hours? Again, the entitlement bleeds through multiple purple folks. Is the vast majority of the membership like this? Do most FDX pilots think “We are FDX pilots, we deserve industry leading rules?”

I’m familiar with the RLA. As stated, I haven’t seen the flow chart until now, and I’m sure that I’m not the only one. maybe there was an educational campaign with this, but it certainly didn’t hit my inbox, and our alpa website is shat! I would much rather eat Doritos than hunt and peck that website.

The answer is yes. I once flew 1000 hrs per year domestically. When you can land your wide body in a foreign land, on your second leg in the middle of the night, get doused by god only knows what, force your way out of the bus after two hours to take a ****, then lock yourself in a room for 1-7 days, come talk to me.

You’re right. And that responsibility rests squarely on ALPA’s shoulders.

Good luck with that argument. I did it, throughout Covid, yes it sucked enormously, but it is the job. Just like many were fearing for their livelihoods at the time, you were making bank. And now roles are slightly reversed.

Who do you work for? Why do you post here so much? Answer those questions then I’ll answer yours.

I dropped for draft one time in 2020. Otherwise, I flew my schedule. I’ve got a kid and a wife that still likes me. I’m home as much as I can be. That said, while I was being denied training, FedEx blissfully extended me 84 hours over and over again. Did your airline make you spend two months on the road? Asking for a friend.

Well folks, you have it. Finally something that is accurate. Lazy and admits it.
