I'll stop there. CAL pilots have a history of strength? The younger CAL pilots are selfish? What the..! Am I reading this wrong? What a moron! Vote him out! The scabs are strong and the furloughed guys are selfish. That's just great.
Is that where the sentence ends? If not I would prefer to know the entire sentence. Either way doesn't seem to be the best use of language or any way to communicate to those of our pilots who are now without jobs. If he thinks this is appropriate language, then maybe it is time for a change in our LEC officers.

A lot of us are on Mil leave, COLA, Early retirement, etc. I did not see the vote until it was too late to vote. I would say we have a lot of us in that boat. 2/3 voted and said yes. I don't know how many said no. I definitely would have voted yes.
