Rumor has it that one "Union President" [El Presidente] has sent a stack of letters. What is missing, among other things, from El Presendente's disclosure is the letters missing from what is on the boards - also known as more milestones in a long string of lies by omission.
You should ask him, "El Presidente, is it true you refuse to meet face to face with your counterparts? Are you throwing in the towel?"
I am as sure as the feathers on my back that he will reply with a long string of reasons why he cannot work with current company leaders. Please see the sidebar below and to the right. I am quite sure that he would have a problem communicating with a company representative if said rep. walked on water, wore a robe, had a beard, a brilliant aura, and promised eternal salvation.
It's like this: In order to make progress, real progress, you must have the ability to act like a fair human being and stand up to the message board morons. The union is not a personality cult (well, it is now), it is a business run by pilots (supposed to be) in a professional manner (again, in theory), acting like business people (currently qualified for Razzie Awards, if we're talking about acting like), and advancing pilot interests in a way that benefits the entire company for the long term. In other words - STOP KILLING THE GOLDEN GOOSE!
Full review of the 1-1-[all]-4[me] "news letter" after the holiday. Until then, ask El Presidente for ALL the letters. If you want him to make progress, tell him to grow a pair and call Mr. Eyer back.
For El Presidente, a theme song:
Honk! Honk!

This is the blog of Goose, the one who puts a roof over your head and food in your belly. I am getting sick, and soon the farmer is going to stop feeding me and I will stop laying Golden Eggs for you. The farmer in Omaha says I keep getting sicker and sicker and it may soon not be worth feeding me any more. I need your help. Please.* *This is satire, so if you have Lupees you should take this as seriously as you take your fear less leader / representative example...
