So who is your vote (secret ballot of course) for regionals?

If many of you would spend more time fighting against TAX LAW vs. spending time trying to determine "What YOU think you are worth" (Believe me, it's usually half of your determined value) or concentrate on breach of individual privacy and security issues (Patriot Act - Govt. unilaterally took away your rights, and you let them), you might find that you would be happier, wealtheir and feel better because you are helping out the Whole Country vs. a small pilot group.

Weren't you supposed to enlighten us about which regionals we should all want to work for? I seem to remember you shooting your mouth off..errr...posting something like that a few months ago. You've been awful quiet about that since then:rolleyes:

Speaking of unions
 
Classic stuff going on in the world of helicopter unions. There is a pilot list going around but it is not the scab list. It is a list of the union guys leading the charge who are hedging their bets by going out on sick leave just before the strike. They did not have the courage of their own convictions. Appears they are persona non-grata with the majority of the pilots, both union and non-union. Seems they forgot what leadership is about, asking someone to do something you are not willing to do yourself. Looks like PHI will break that union. Could it be an indication of the future for airplane drivers?

Through a bit of research I found out who Ellen is and what it does:

So what do you say "Ellen", Should I tell them? Or do you want a chance to tell them yourself?

I was fence sitting on the union at skywest, but now I will vote yes. My main reason for this is how much effort they are putting into keeping a union off property. Hey If management is as concerned with us as employees then what’s there problem with a union?
