That flows along the same logic as the Eastern guys who used to give me crap about our airline not being an ALPA carrier when I tried to commute.
As if I with my little BE1900 job was going to change the world. It is all one profession. Keep that in mind. It is the individual bone heads that need to be identified.

Typical B6 "pilot" ignorance. Too stupid to figure out where I work by himself and then taking out his frustration on some poor jumpseater when he knows I'd never darken the door of his "duck blind." Exactly like the guy who comes home and beats his kids because he can't stand the pressure at work.
Just remember, G, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, its a duck!

Would that be Max Griffin? If so or not, I always wondered where he went.

You feel nothing but contempt for a guy taking a job with JetBlue. I'm sure you were fortunate enough to get hired during the good times when there were jobs a' plenty. A lot of guys out there are dealing with furloughs from their fine unions jobs and are trying to feed their families. A lot of other guys don't have the right connections to land a job at FedEx or UPS. Since most of your beloved uinon companies have been knee-deep in bankruptcy for several years, their choices are union jobs that pay $20/hr, JetBlue paying $52/hr, or finding another line of work. Who the hell are you to dictate which path they take?!

So outspoken, so righteous, so COWARDLY. Back to my, and others', previous question. Why are you so afraid to say where you work and talk about your own company? You can put this matter to bed very easily. All your squawking is meaningless until you are man enough to quit hiding.

Ah, yes. Exactly the reasoning scabs use to cross picket lines.
Taken there by greedy managers to lower pay and retirement plans to the B6 level.
Either of which would be preferable to willingly taking a non-union job that undercut the existing contracts of UNION pilots.
Simply someone who has too much self-respect and honor for the profession to stab fellow pilots in the back. Someone who has walked two picket lines and seen scabs cross them because they had to "feed their families".

After watching the way the senior guys in the union pull up the ladder I can't blame guys for going to fly for jetBlue or anybody else. You can't use the cover of being in the union to mask every time you screw everyone junior to you. At least the SCABS screwed us in public, you and the rest of the folks pushing for age 60 change are doing it under the cover of darkness and with the flag of unity at half mast. That is some brotherhood.
You are small, vile, and a hypocrite as well if you insist on supporting a change to Age 60.
