NOT TO SAY THIS DOESN'T NEED TO BE FAST TRACKED
My point was not about the grievance they already did that. It's about using the fast track. If we wait to use the fast track option the judge could say well you didn't think it was urgent enough to use fast track at the beginning (use it) so you can't use it now (lost it). Timing does set precedence.

If security is an issue, I'm fine with TSA getting rid of KCM all together.

Seriously Ram, can't tell if you're serious or not anymore. You've become really bitter if you think our FAs don't deserve KCM. They have been through a lot and have been getting screwed for years. If they screw up that's their fault but there's no reason they shouldn't have it.

If you're going to pick a fight, say no FAs deserve it. Not just ours.

Well, screening the people that control the airplane = stupid.

Allowing cockpit access to what could potentially be an 18 year old jihadi that managed to NOT have a record, and managed to pass a three week training course = stupid.

Just my analysis.

Just a question about one of our pilots. So I was deadheading on one of our flights, we all boarded (full flight), sat at the Emerg exit, but the front crew wasn't there, eventually they made it in, did their stuff, door closed, CA came out, grabbed the Phone and started his PA, lots of info, keep in mind it was hot, pushing close to 20 min late, etc. What caught EVERYONE by surprise was his explanation on how to close the foward lavatory door, " -DONT SLAM THE DOOR, IT BOTHERS ME WHEN IM RELAXING-" then proceeded to the lavatory door and showed everyone what he meant, "slam the door, closed it softly, slam, soft, slam, soft".....after that, some other weird remarks... Drops the phone (my add) and walks away with 145 open mouths.

Has anyone experienced this?

To his credit, the one thing that bothers everyone, generalizing here, is the AM visit to the lavatory after the coffee and the banana that people do.

That was the point, if FA's are going to have KCM, ours might as well also
