Just like when you used to ask your teacher how to spell and word and she would give you the first few letters so that you could know where to start in the dictionary.

I understand the frustration with folks who don't want to help themselves...but...as an elected representative for your pilot group you have taken on the responsibility to help...if you want to call them back and say here's where it is, go read it...fine, say that...but to not call them back, as a union rep...I will definatly not be voting for you in a future election...and not because of FAPA vs. 357 (I'd vote for a FAPA guy if I believe he is more qualified than a 357) but because of comments like this.

This F9 dude is quite the customer service rep. If a new guy hasn't taken the time to look up the contract maybe cut him a little slack and get off your high horse. This is exactly the sort of attitude that is ruining this industry and making it difficult at the airline. You're part of the problem dude. Point someone to the right direction if you are too frustrated or lazy to do sow thing about it. Don't act like you're too good or bitter to do something for a new guy. Have a little more common decency. As a new guy and former military myself I appreciate and expect the guidance of the folks that have been there for a while and might be able to offer a couple words to point me in the right direction. You should know better. Hope you have a better attitude in your airbus.

No kidding. We definitely have our share of guys who would rather spend the energy being prickish instead of helpful. Who knows why.
