Skywest pilots and ALPA

I see where ALPA is attempting to organize the Skywest pilots. I hope a few of them see this because they may want to reconsider joining ALPA. As a pilot for a small cargo airline represented by them, I cannot be more unhappy. I would never vote for them and I will never happily take employment at a carrier represented by them. What do the Skywest pilots think they will gain??? ALPA will take their money and then control them, shoving whatever ALPA wants down their throat. When it comes time for Skywest to confront one of their partner airlines about equipment rights, or mergers, it's the little guy who will get the shaft. I saw where Mr. Prater had organized a phone bank to call all the Skywest pilots in some 24 hour period. Great, now ALPA is telemarketing!!! And isn't that just so fitting. I tired to get on your web site Skywest, but you have no way to contact you. Beware!
