That is an ASA ALPA thing, I have worked under five locals (one other ALPA) and ASA's ALPA was the weakest and least professional. Its too bad because ASA has the framework to be a great place to work but when the union rolls over on things it makes it go south pretty quick.

It never used to be that way. Back in the Bob Arnold days (3+ years ago), ASA ALPA walked quietly and carried a very big stick.

Sheesh, five times in one month? How many of those RRR days did you actually fly?

I would offer up my techniques, but then I wouldn't be sitting at home so much and scheduling change that....
