I believe AG should not have run for FO representation since he will be a CA when his term begins. That is not right. I won't differentiate for AA if this is true.
Yes. He hadn't flown in over a year due to no first class but he never went on DRP. He bid lines and dropped trips for ALPA. The company knew he wasn't qualified but let him bid anyway. Try not turning in your medical or missing CQ and see if they let you bid.

They must have been from the local, hardly ever called up, guard or reserve unit. They were horrible. Whoever told them they could sing, especially the chick on the right, should be shot.

Glad we decided not to go. Flights were wide open BOS-ATL on Monday and now half cancelled and the rest oversold. Whew.
I was supposed to fly to BOS tomorrow. We've been rerouted. Flying ad far as Minny tomorrow and then on to Boston on Tuesday morning. I was psyched for my 36 hour layover in BOS. Alas, no longer exists. For all the bros hunkered down in the northeast. God bless and stay dry.

Does this mean RA is going to be leaving us soon?
Right after the Alaska merger.

I was hoping to have someone else confirm it other than you since you're sold out for the establishment and don't like that he doesn't carry your party torch without question. I'll do some sniffing around to see if I can confirm it otherwise.

After you confirm it, will you report back?

I think you were dead on. Everyone needs a plan 'B'. No worries!
