Amazing how ALPA members have no problem telling other groups to take all the concessions the company wants us to take. But when it comes to ALPA the story line changes. Interesting. Well if you the ALPA group elects to walk guess we all will be equal....standing in line at the unemployment office. Amazing how certin groups thought it would either be CWA or the IAM to bring down the airline. Funny who it now appears to be. Like I have said before I understand what you all at ALPA are going through and it stinks. Been there and done that. But I give no sympathy. We got no support when we went through it in 1992, so I will give no support. I will leave you with a quote that I recieved from a pilot during 1992. "Remember what you are giving up is securing your future with the company". Guess that only applies to the other groups. This post is not ment to be offensive and if some of the ALPA members take offense to it, let me say I am sorry. All employee groups need to keep in mind there is a time and place for everything. We are at the place but the time is not right.

This rhetoric is like a broken record. The fact is the majority of agents did not think there was a need for a union and they got stung. It was YOUR fault not ALPA's or anyone elses. YOU trusted management and they stabbed you in the back. It is the same song different day with these posts. In 1992 blah, blah, blah... Chip said, "blah, blah, blah..." How does it feel now that your pension is being taken away?... blah, blah, blah.
