Maybe next go-around we throttle back on the fire-hose propaganda and just let the thing live or die on its merits.
After the last 3 years of propaganda you would think that folks who get paid to make informed decisions would be able to detect the BS a little better than this. This TA brought to you by ALPA. Industry leading is no different than safe and effective.

I am counting on every pilot who said they would help with TA 2.0 to roll up their sleeves and lend a hand. Everyone need to do a little. Together.
Yes - Listen to Understand. Not listen to just argue/refute.

Wonderful news to wake up to today. I’ve been vocal against 1.0 here and I’m willing to serve to bring us all a better 2.0. I look forward to comms from the union about how we can better align the NC agenda with the crew force agenda and I’ll be reaching out to my block rep (again) to ask about volunteering.

Let's start with a survey that offers ALL OF THE NEGOTIATING OPTIONS. The previous survey essentially forced pancakes and pension elimination as the only choices. Also, no to single pilot, no to outsourcing our jobs, and it's time for less SUB, not more. Oh yeah, industry leading pay rates actually means industry leading pay rates.

Though I ended up voting yes, I agree. It is time to come together. If we stay 57-43, we won't get the contract we want. Time to act as one.

I can’t speak for Anthrax, but I contacted my block rep during the voting period to see if I could start a conversation about why he felt so positively about this TA. He never responded to me. I’m going to email him back and ask how I can step up and help out going forward. Hopefully he responds to that one.

Start a recall on them. If they can't be bothered to answer your emails, you don't want them as your block rep.

2871 “No” votes.
That’s the easy part. I sure never saw 2871 people at the picketing events. Maybe some of you will finally show up. We definitely need more than 10% if we are going to convince the company we are unified.
