Of course. Anyone with a brain understands this is a company created problem of simple math. The straw man that the troll is trying to construct is laughable.

Oh no, someone disagrees with the B0000mer commentariat on APC. The sky is falling!

I'll see your rumpled butt in new balances and the old uniform in January while the rest of us sport the new uniform.

Other than the fact that your MEC chair told you to knock it off in a recent MEC email because some mid level management type decided to complain about a pilot’s announcements? Maybe that’s what’s wrong with it. Remember, you are an ALPA pilot plying your trade at UAL. That’s where your loyalty should be if you have even the smallest bit of historical industrial knowledge.

Well, at least the 2000 of you that ran down to get a fitting. lol. The other 15000 will follow our MEC’s advice and send in the measurements and deal with alterations at the company’s expense. Simple.

Do you also take a dump based on MEC guidance?

For a guy who had next to no flight time when he got hired (your first post in 2018 was quite the “hat-in-hand” respectful tone that we’d all love to share a cockpit with) , you sure have turned into an arrogant little turd in few years since you managed to weasel your way into a job here. Amazing the chameleon like abilities that some have just so they can be in the club.

My response, among others, was that it 1) wasn't hard to get an appointment if you did it when recommended, and 2) most of this is because guys are entitled and don't want to do anything other than the bare minimum.

Now they act all mad and surprised. And yes, you do have time to go get measured. I have a second job and it was still easy for me to go.
You're an unpleasant person.

And I'm sure you walked across the high school graduation floor with 10,000 turbine PIC hours, right? lol.

Get off your high horse. You aren't any more special than anyone else on property.

My original point stands - anyone who actually wanted to get appointments did. And if you can't find one now, go to a nearby brooks brothers and size match. Not that hard.

Thank you for affirming your troll status. Maybe stop digging while you’re behind?

The funny thing is if you spent even half the effort you do fighting rhetorical battles against perceived APC boogeymen, you'd have gotten fitted for the new uniform 3x over.

Alas, it seems your priorities lie in other places. Sorry, I can't help you, bud.
