Oh good. So you learned how to control people from the Taliban. No alcohol, alcohol is evil. Last time I checked, we had freedom in this country. If my MEC wants to consume alcohol after a long, hard meeting, give it to 'em. They deserve it. That's what makes America great!

Who said no alcohol? You have a haze confusing freedom and freeloading and corruption. I agree except I'm not a democrat...I say let them earn it and not give it to them.
I bet you are a big Jane Fonda fan? No, freedom isn't free and what have you done to preserve your freedom!

They earn their beer. We need to keep them happy. Yes, it's a volunteer position, but they need to be taken care of, alcohol included. As long as it is legal and they keep sex out of the equation.

Well lets agree to disagree....I see things 180 out from you on this matter especially with a single furloughed ALPA pilot on the street.

Thanks for engaging.

This is from a cal LEC officer that published an article (blast mail) encourage the cal guys to get involved and join the fight against the UAL pilots. Unity? He was asked to post the blast mail for all forum members to see and he chose not to - transparency?
These guys were elected by the cal pilots and they appointed pierce to lead them but don't want to shoulder the responsibility of pierce's actions.

He was on here doing damage control - why didn't he just post the blast mail or does it really show how dysfunctional the cal MEC has become under pierce.

Youre right, he should.

Not gonna roll over, not gonna share my foxhole, and not gonna let a bonehead blast mail ruin my day either.

Frats.

[QUOTE=LAX Pilot;1414466]You talk about unity? Did you see the CAL proposed staple job of 2,500 UAL pilots? We just don't react we'll to scab-like behavior.[/QUOTE

Everything that doesn't sit well with the UAL guys will always considered scab like it's your MO...You can see the reaction many times on this board... Bet if rolls were reversed we would have seen the same type of list from your committee...Probably even worse....Like I said many times before a UAL guy can make a bad comment about a CAL guy, But the minute someone says something against a UAL guy, Watch the reaction..... Gun's are blazing, everyones a scab, Pierce did it,boo hoo everywhere.....Sorry we all didn't suckle from the United teat.. Staple job? Your opinion? Were they working? Harsh sorry, accept it, other people don't have the same views as you...You choose to be enemies so be it...Is protecting numbers of Cal pilots scab mentality, Then protecting jobs of UAL guys must be also be scab mentality on your side...

Who is freeloading? Who is corrupt? What does having a beer after a meeting have to do with this. Occasionally the union has a BBQ for the pilots and families. There is usually beer there. Are we freeloading, or is it just the reps who are freeloading? They pay dues also. And I believe those reps earn every drop of that beer.

Jane Fonda? She's okay. Nothing special. I did like On Golden Pond. Coming Home was a good movie, but may not be suitable for you. She does believe in free speech, I'll give her that much credit.
