I see, you respect them, but want more to join them. It is all about you isn't it?

You sure do have a grasp of the situation. There is only one group I want sent to the street. Btw, when were you hired?

For various reasons, I believe that is unimportant. I know that my unmitigated failure to hate/castigate/abhor/detest/loathe the scabs is probably an anathema to you, but I also refuse to re-fight most wars. However, if it will make you feel better, I didn't, by even the most loose definition of the word, scab. My DOH is in 1987 at CAL. FWIW, I refused to accept a job at CAL until the strike was settled. Yes, I was offered a job at CAL twice during the strike.

Now, let me ask you a question, when were your born? I find it humorous and tragic at the same time, when I hear whelps who were still twinkles in daddy's eye in 1983, heap scorn on those who crossed. Of course these are the self-same FOs who think that I should retire early, and give up my seat because they have paid their dues! Usually, shortly after making a statement like that, they demonstrate why they are not really ready to be in the left seat. Their certitude backed by little knowledge reminds me of my teenagers-----oh wait------my teenagers aren't flying jets!

NICE!

I would doff my cap in your general direction, but my dreadlocks would spill out and scare the passengers. Wait, I don't have a cap.....
