Good point. Don’t recall if I had that on my resume at the time. Probably not.

If you were the grievance/compliance chair or negotiating committee maybe. Otherwise I’d say it’s actually good to put it on there and usually shows leadership characteristics. Very few union positions are across the table challenging the company on what they want to do.

Full send is my recommendation.

I applied at 2600 hours, no TPIC, and was successful. So don’t give up hope!

Failures

Is it true spirit won’t look at you if you have had any failures or hiccups in the last 5 years? Heard that through the unofficial grapevine. Seems sort of extreme if true.
