Ahh lanyard talk. Can’t we just agree to not wear the company lanyard and move along?

Management cares. Ask any of the negotiators or LEC reps during last negotiations.

It wasn't 5 minutes after negotiations were done when they asked for us to stop wearing the lanyards. (Seriously, ask any of our negotiators past and present)

Nope, that’s the apathetic crap I’ve been complaining about for a while. Want a nice contract? Do the bare minimum. This is one reason why we are cemented to the bottom, apathy is contagious and only works against us.

But sure, yeah, let’s just keep rocking the NFL lanyards, maybe Bendo will like your team.

Guys won’t do the bare minimum. But like you say, that USAF lanyard tells us all how patriotic you are.

I wear my USAF lanyard and will continue to do so. If it makes it seem like I'm not a team player, TFB. Time for the union to step up and produce. Earn my respect and loyalty. The days of blind allegiance because of optics is over.

Should we start a lanyard thread perhaps?

I don’t really care what lanyard people wear in between negotiations. Contract time put on the ugly ALPA one.

Been there, done that. I really don't GAF what people think about what lanyard I wear or don't wear. I really don't.

I don't make excuses. I just don't wear it, and I never will. I wear my 20 year ALPA pin, which has always been the gold standard of showing support for our union. I don't care that a bunch of Millennials have decided that's not good enough. I have no problem telling them where to put their lanyard.

It’s not about what people think about your lanyard. It’s about the collective effect it can have. And if you don’t care about that, it says more about what you think of everyone else than what others think of you. Which is, I don’t care about you.
