A few hundred elected officers are not all going to agree on every issue. We agree on the majority of the issues, but not all of them. Never assume that an individual's opinion reflects ALPA policy simply because he is a rep. |
Wait a second. Two threads ago you were talking about how a rep MUST represent ALPA. Now you have a rep say "do as I say, not as I do"... Or did you tell your pilots to use the jumpseat as a weapon if they wanted to? If you did that, it would be against ALPA policy, which is pretty much what got the Council 41 Reps booted.
I know I'm simplifying, but you see the issue I have with this?
