Ban union reps from becoming management?
It has always got up my nose when pilot union officials jump to the other side and start using their inside knowledge to snipe back at us. Makes one question their motivation for becoming a representative of their peers in the first place.
I doubt if it would ever get up but I reckon any pilot who takes on a union position should be banned from accepting a management position for at least 5 years.
What do you guys think?

Moderate, Modest & Mild.
How about just banning management!! 
Take them out of the office for a month and it doesn't make an ounce of difference to the schedules.
After all, management's job IS to put the BEST people in the positions of responsibilty to leave them free to do BIGGER things
Agreed bonvol, but how would you enforce it?

Dont think anything will stop the really determined but an idea is to make it as embarrassing as possible for them. Write it into the union constitution and ask them pointed questions when they ask for your vote.
When they subsequently do the dirty, if they do, then bring up the "Hansard" report and let em' have it.
They get off scot free at the moment.

Funbags, usually one only finds out about their intentions once their behind is warming the seat. It's all too late then. Apathy on the part of the majority doesn't help much either.
Candidates know that if the rank and file get a sniff of their true intentions then thats that. Also, once in the chair some get shall we say "seduced" by management and start with good intentions but fall over.
