Well, I don't know. Maybe it's the same guy. Short, hispanic, gotee?

In any case, I get the feeling I'm being blown off by my union jumpseat guy. I'll give it a few more days, then I'll volunteer to be the new guy on the jumpseat committe and follow up myself with the SAPA rep. Not expecting much as Tony Williams is a SAPA guy and I don't expect he likes me much. But it's worth a try....

Always professional, always gets back to you. And he doesnt get a dime for doing all this extra work. PM me and I'll put you in touch with him. We had a problem with SLC ops not letting jumpseaters on becuase "they" determined it was weight restricted. They denied most jumpseaters without even consulting the PIC. Michael got on it right away and about 95% of the problem has been fixed. He just won't be bullied by anyone, union or not. He's been with the company a long time, and is based outta SBA. Bids reserve and stays home. Lucky duck.
I'll talk to him about it at the SAPA meeting tuesday.
