CBR_1 maybe you should become a delegate and put your mouth where your money is.

The FAAA delegates are representing you as volunteers. They are trying to get everyone's support in an "office" where some of the employees couldn't care less what happens in the EBA. They only care about the next weekend off, their next pay check, when do we sign off and what time is pick up. They want it all handed to them on a platter because thats the way they are. Don't you get why they asked you which way to vote. They didn't read the document and are relying on others to make a decision for them. Its still like high school.

There is no point bagging the union letting you down when it is your so called "friends" out online that dont have your back. The FAAA will be there as your representative when you need them, where will your "friends" be?
In the mean time why don't you approach the FAAA about being more helpful out online with recruiting and informing crew. There are plenty of crew doing that now. Once we are all on the same page then with the majority of crew at your back you can take what ever action is legal.
You could even run for FAAA VBA CC Team Leader perhaps your hardline stance will make our managers see the light of day.
