Why should I care about any other airline? a Quick upgrade is all I care about right now. Maybe in 2 years I will think differently but for right now this is the way I feel.

Well, in 2 years don't look to any of us for help.

More love from the ALPA crowd....

I'm confident, without reservation, that you and your ilk are not selling ALPA.

You have absolutely no proof whatsoever to back this absurd statement.

Quit spreading this FEAR as gospel.

and for the love of god dont listen to the clowns at other alpa regionals they only want to hurt skywest to the point where they can pick up flying from us or before us.
You are as paranoid as you are ignorant of the facts.

At least you're honest with your blatant, greedy selfishness.

If you want to be stapled at the bottom of the ASA list then vote yes.
If you want the upgrade to go to 3+ years then vote yes.
If you want to end up like the lifers who are just bitter then are stuck at skywest for life vote yes.

and for the love of god dont listen to the clowns at other alpa regionals they only want to hurt skywest to the point where they can pick up flying from us or before us.
This sounds like the FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) that our management at Flight Options tried to spread when we voted to be represented by the Teamsters.
