The event that led to moderating the sapa forum was a blessing in disguise from the EB's perspective. I can tell you first hand some in the EB were looking to shut down the forum completely prior to moderation. Ideas were being explored as how to shut it down while making it seem like the decision was not theirs to make. They have rabbit ears and very defensive to any criticism regarding they're perpetual pro company agenda. Don't buy the bill of goods the sapa EB tries to sell.

Funny how they say unions break down communications and the open door policy. That is just a bit hypocritical being the way the EB operates.

On to more important things. RJ is just an extension of the JP regime. Now that JP has parlayed his 25 hours of flying per year into Mainline gold, we will just have to expect the same from RJ and him letting retired pilots fly our planes with nothing in return.

Anyone remember when the recall movement was getting traction over the EFB rollout? SAPA was ready to give away notification in one of those midnight congress votes, but someone caught wind of it and posted it on the forums? No wonder they don't like them. And you remember how quick they were to change everything around after. Sure they tried to make it sound like we left all this money on the table because they didn't want to pay the reflow 1-2-3 (AKA Lineholders are now reserves)
I know SAPA is worthless at getting gains for us, but they sure can give up our QOL at an alarming pace. If you don't like what's going on, petition for recall and get them out of there. I mean, our EB is so apathetic that we can't even get the results from our region election that closed last night.

How would ANC to SEA or PDX be?

It's not bad I've never missed any flights and know a handful of people who haven't really had much trouble making those flights.

You know when we changed to the new website, it was sold to us that it would improve communication and allow SAPA to do things it couldn't with the old one. I am now assuming that those things were better monitor pilot communication so they could sweep things under the rug and control opinions that are contrary to Mecca.

Why do the other regions not get to know about the voting results? Is it because they don't want to publicize another election with less than 30% of the pilots participating? Why are we using SWOL to communicate any SAPA information? I'm so glad whoever sent the email signed the document that they promise not to say anything bad about SGU so they would have email rights. I have a pretty good idea of how the results went anyways, it's just stupid that our processes are so flawed. I'm sure it will only get worse as more and more people get hired on at the majors. There is some pretty massive attrition from SAPA right now.

Oh come on, you just need to gulp down some extra Kool-aid and everything will be just fine.
