Not a regular visitor here but i've been alerted to this thread.
First Divosh u need to get your head read. How is trying to restart the Eastern V Sunstate war gonna help anyone? F
ck talk about playing into the hands of management. Seems like your tactic is to hope that they will die from laughter.
Let's look at the big picture. Has anyone seen the final document? No that's right, it hasn't been drafted yet. Pretty hard to form an opinion without all the facts isn't it.
Here's how to go about it.
1. Ignore all the rumours and bullsh1t you might hear.
2. Wait until you receive the full document.
3. Read it and understand it.
4. Go to a road show and ask questions.
5. Form your OWN opinion based on FACT, not emotion, then vote yes or no.
We are our own worst enemies.
As far as the politics go, if you think you could do better, put your hand up and nominate for your pilot council. Otherwise shut the f
ck up.
Wake up people. We are professional pilots. Let's start acting like it.
