You know Whale Rider, I kind of believe you.
ALPA National will probably do something to pull the plug on the merger after the time line of the Teamsters Vote at Atlas, if it fails. You know, the typical back room backstabbing agreements that we have grown accustom to at ALPA. I could give you a number of examples in just contract negotiations. Right up there with how Atlas managment does things except with a union name on it. Pretty disgusting isn't it. Playing one union off another. A fine example of how not to run a union.
So if you are tired of it, I suggest completing a card at
http://atlasforteamsters.com whether you are Polar or Atlas guys.
