I'm with Index on this. sailingfun tried to generate some mileage based on an unsubstantiated claim that he was personally threatened by a CEO. When called on it, he punted. He even resorted to an "I won't post private emails here" straw man.

Further, george tg just slapped him silly on his "efficiency" babble.

Sailingfun, here's a little advice: stick to posting facts..."just the FACTS ma'am", from your sources.. Not your interpretation or conjecture. Don't try to do management's and DALPA's jobs of lowering our expectations. We don't need any more of that. You might even consider bolstering our efforts to be better compensated, instead of ****ing on them.

If you stick to that formula, you will regain a lot of goodwill here.

He should have kept it to himself to begin with.
It never happened guys, fud just made it up. Non-heroes trying to paint themselves as heroes rarely works.

You know what, you guys are really turning me off to coming here much any more. You may not agree with Sailingfun, I can see that but questioning his integrity, I don't agree with that. Weren't most of us Officer's and all of us Gentlemen? I'm really kinda disgusted with the turn things have taken the last few days.

I actually agree with this. If he said he did it, he did it. It doesn't matter to our careers. What does matter is why he thinks we are inefficient compared to the other airlines.

Thought you were going back to "luker" mode, Carl? At least that is what you stated in multiple posts. I guess you "just made it up?"

What is so nice about this, we don't have to give anything up to get it which is of course what DALPA says when there is no one to pattern off.
INCORRECT!!!!! Your blind hatred for D-ALPA success is clouding your ability to see reality.

DAL patterned up on themselves C2012.
UCAL patterned up on DAL.

I agree. Little bit of bully/mob mentality going on. I don't always agree with him, but he brings a more moderate opinion in some cases. This isn't the ALPA forum.

You and Index are too funny to stay away too long. I can already tell that C2015, C2018, C2021 is going to be a "no vote" for you girls. (Just like your girl's ice is too cold, and coffee is too hot, nothing will be good enough and it's really too bad that life is that miserable for you tweenies.
