How about unity towards the same end and stop writing things like this on public message boards.
I acquiesce...

...towards the objective we say we all desire, you are right... there are many tactics, approaches, strategies, avenues, mechanisms, lanes we can navigate to achieve what we all say we deserve.

Someone here used social pressure to enhance/increase adherence of our membership's behavior towards our stated objective. Yes there are other methods.

Just as safety is an objective in our flights, we could use material from our own operations to try to steer the deviant activities back towards our objective

Assertiveness is ensuring your input is heard and understood rather than hinting or silently watching as perceived mistakes are about to be made. The ve steps to an assertive statement are:
1. Opening statement - “Bob, John, Captain, etc.”
2. State your concern - Take ownership, “I’m uncomfortable with...“
3. State the problem - The problem as you see it.
4. Offer a suggestion - Suggested solution to the problem.
5. Reach agreement - Crew Members, reaching a mutually agreeable solution, may take more than one assertive statement from one or more of the crew.

The rest of us are uncomfortable with you not following in your fellow pilots' stated and published objective, to receive an industry standard contract WHATEVER IT TAKES.

The problem as we see it is that you are not following the collective course of ceasing to relieve the company of the consequences of their ineptitudes in staffing and scheduling, and you are pursing INDIVIDUAL gain over that of our collective.

A solution might be to stop doing that.

Or perhaps other sources...like ...Rockefellers, Carnegies, Gates, Steve Jobs...from his commencement address to Stanford graduate...

“Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.

Or perhaps other sources...

This is not about feelings. This is not about etiquette. This is about winning....WHATEVER IT TAKES.

If I fly with you, I will say it to whomever personally. Until then, since P2P and Union messages don't seem to deter your off course actions, here is where it plays out.

The DBs are the snowflakes who choose to be offended over everything these days.

The guy made a joke, I laughed. Besides, it is true, more than a few people use Spanish as their default language on the aircraft in the FLL base...despite it being a violation of SOP. He didn't say Spanish-speaking people are bad or shouldn't work here, just made a joking reference to the widespread use of the language at work.

Maybe the crew rooms should have safe spaces with coloring books, video games, and a direct hotline to HR. English and Spanish, of course.

It's hilarious to watch you crybabies get triggered. Thanks for the laugh.

Que?

I'm FLL based and I took it as a joke. For those who didn't, "Lighten up Francis"

These are stressful times and we should all try to relax a bit. We are not each other's enemy.
