You can't raise yourself anywhere near his levels by association. Second of all, isn't it quaint that all of a sudden you and your "higher skill set" and "movers and shakers" are interested in 'common ground'...... where was this interest about 3 years ago, when FAA 'negotiators' made a rush to impasse, to take advantage of an obscure but legal loophole allowing you to impose work rules on the FAA's controllers? It appears that the only culture change you're really interested in is when it helps you to retain your job. His response to me? -- "Oh, pleeeeese, like I am really worried about my job. You really don't get iit." Sat, 4 Jul 2009 02:30:00 +0000 http://www.faafollies.com/?p=1365#IDComment26268005
