It’s a great point that the number of 3xxxxx file numbers now exceeds the number of pre-merger pilots. What we DON’T need is newer people becoming satisfied that this place is already “good enough” simply by virtue of it being much better than where they were before.

I’ve spent so much time listening to people gush about how great WB flying is compared to NB, that I enjoyed how he had to pause for a second to think of a way to frame WB flying in a negative way

Like I said, “flirting with”…

We both know you don’t have to explicitly say “burn it down” to get into trouble. It may truly be that he knows precisely where the lines are drawn better than I do, but for me, some of what he’s saying coupled with the official looking union setting would be a bridge too far.

IOW, he’s not wrong, but I would feel I was putting a target on myself by doing that.

So whenever I hear that line, I cringe.



Yupe. It was grass roots efforts like his and others that showed a lot of pilots that what the last union administration was doing was not working for us, but for management!

He did however say “…you don’t have a contract because you’re doing your job too well…”

you tell me what the insinuation is

Yeah that line needs an edit for me to be comfortable. Guy better not go any stronger in language in future videos.

it’s not “good enough”….but this whole “Doctor Evil” act where we now demand one TRILLION dollars is also counterproductive and hurting our bottom line. Mediation for two years only to get a mediocre result DICTATED to us isn’t anything I support. I know plenty of others who feel the same. Delta+ and QOL gains across the board….absolutely nothing less. But wouldn’t it be nice to know what’s currently being offered? Nope….Uncle MEC knows best, and us mushrooms are better off ignorant in the dark. 🙄

I'm curious what's driving your fears?

Do you have evidence of a federal court judge prohibiting such language? Is there legal precedent in our specific case or something similar? Has United taken the pilot group and ALPA to court, or have UAL lawyers threatened ALPA?

Mediation can’t dictate anything… you’re thinking of arbitration.

Tell me you’re new here without telling me you’re new here. Seriously, read some history and specifically the testimony given by the company that led to the TRO.
