Traf , back in 99 when we had a clear mandate from the AOA, the majority of pilots , basically all the A scalers at the time, couldn’t find the courage to stand up and be counted . There were a number of very brave individuals that resisted in every way possible and 49 that the company wanted rid of suffered terribly .
As long as the majority are as weak as piss don’t hold your breath . They all want “you “ to take on management on your own , while they stay safely in the trenches. What they fail to realise is that unless you all go over the top of the trenches together the enemy will pick off the few brave enough to poke their heads up .
It’s not like you are risking your life , perhaps your job ,but If everyone stands as one, and refuses to go back to work until anyone who is fired is reinstated The problem is solved.
Sadly I am so disgusted with the people that I work with . It’s not a function of the AOA giving direction it’s the fact that most are too scared to do anything even if they did .
As you say expect further cuts to your career in the coming months
