OPEIU? You gotta be kidding!
Thanks, Alt3 for pointing out to Angry Bayman the OPEIU's lack luster performance. Sorry I pointed to $$ as a indicator but like Alt3 I have been a member of OPEIU and don't expect much. I understand your issue about the Newfie weather (especially when you return to night ops) vs. weather in the GOM but what I was addressing was Cougar pilots in the GOM (Galliano) making more than the other US OPEIU union members here in the US. Sorry for not being clearer about that. Also how will this affect the US folks working for Cougar up there and down here?
I probably don't disagree totally with pilots going union; it is just that union! But I don't know what your other choices were; if any.
