We were an AMC (Reach) contractor so we had many of the same requirements.

How is it your fault? taking an experimental vaccine or not is not a fault of your own making. Seems like contractually you would be pay protected for one of those trips. Surely your contract does not allow your whiz kid CEO to just make proclamations and change contractual protection. Maybe so

Too late to edit this....but I was incorrect about one detail. He’s an Alaska pilot, not SouthWest.

Gloating and money...Neither are my thing bro. Really curious about how the mando vax shots that y’all are talking about can even be a thing when a CBA does not allow it and I am not aware of any ALPA MEC anywhere that plans on signing off on it. Back to listening mode

The W2 thread says otherwise.....

As for the shots.....there’s MANDATORY and there’s “mandatory”. Yeah....I know my sentence is nonsense.....but my point is that it’s possible to make the alternative so undesirable and unpleasant that most people will go ahead and comply......regardless of whether it’s TRULY mandatory.

And United ALPA is good with that?

“You have to see it from the company’s point of view.”

My thoughts exactly. One of those things has NOTHING to do with the other.

There is a 2020 W2 thread on APC, therefore all pilots are greedy and conceited and ALPA is evil!

nah....I think 9mikemike is tone deaf and kind of a Richard......and seems to want to provoke UAL pilots about UAL issues, despite not being a UAL pilot himself. All of those things add up to me not having much interest in what he has to say. I don’t think ALPA is evil, and I don’t think all pilots are greedy. Being VOCALLY greedy while many have suffered loss of livelihood is bad form. Defending that behavior after being called on it is even WORSE form.

Maybe breaking up the quotes makes more sense.

And this ^^^ is why you should always take your “meds” before posting on a public site….
