Hold at Saffa you say 'Unions destroy airlines.'
Well take a look at Ryanair. That's an airline that has destroyed the unions. It's also destroying the working conditions of its employees, bit by bit.
You regard unions as an evil...but I view my union as a necessity, to put a stop to the kind of exploitation being perpetrated by O'Leary. I wouldn't work for him if he was the last employer on earth, at least while there is not even enough backbone among his employees to stand together to protect themselves.
By the way. In my company we have people like you who slate the union. Many of them are manager pilots. But as soon as these people fall into trouble...who do they go running to for help? You guessed it. The hated UNION.
