I don't know if he'll work for both sides at the same time... or perhaps he will.

While nitpicking language is important and a totally valid pastime on the flight deck or in the forums, it’s not sufficient reason to pull the “no”lever, IMO. One thing that I haven’t heard mentioned is that once a CBA is signed, who gives a crap what the dependability policy is, or what defines positive contact?

As an ALPA-protected pilot, it takes an absolutely callous and intentional indifference to safety or a drug bust (sometimes more than one) to get fired. Your job is safe under the vast majority of circumstances. Don’t clean, don’t make positive contact... you might get harassed if you stand still long enough for it, but your career isn’t in jeopardy.

Yes, exercising vigilance against language failings or abuse on the company’s part is important, but it isn’t make-or-break in most circumstances.

This is my observation from years of ALPA membership and watching the dumbest yahoos on the planet continue their careers alongside their elite peers without fail. Unless they buzz the beach in Mexico at 300 knots.

But hey man, if you show with a nose full of coke, you end up at United.

I don't think you get canned for a flyby either.... but you will get a cursory call from your friendly pro stans volunteer.

I could have sworn we are already “ALPA protected pilots.”

Valid. But reps have to have something to lean against while pushing back.
