I guess this means “cancel culture” is alive and well within our pilot group? Even against other JetBlue ALPA pilot volunteers?
I am sickened that people are calling for the house to be burned down after a 54-46 vote. It wasn’t a blowout as some (cough.... Riddleeagle..... cough) projected.
we are a throughly divided pilot group. Why blame the MEC? No matter how they voted, almost 50% of the group would be upset. They did what they felt was right, it was (barely) voted down. They are now filing a grievance against the company IAW section 1. This is the right, and contractually correct, move.
Let the MEC file their grievance, let them work within the confines of the CBA and if y’all want to burn the place down in a year be my guest.... but for right now, I sense a lot of butthurt, shame and anger from no voters.
Everyone said it would be a blowout..... it wasn’t. Everyone said we would send a clear message...... we didn’t. Lots of folks got the vote tally wrong. I believe in the MEC, and I believe they are doing what is best for us, as JetBlue ALPA pilots. If you disagree, fine. However, don’t blame them for trying to do what is best for a VERY angry and VERY divided pilot group.
