Joining the union was completely here choice. She wasn't a member of any for the 1st few years. In fact there are more than one. Some based on profession (ground crew, cabin crew, pilots) and others based on criteria (regional, international fleets). There is a union that is pro-corp, another that is pro-labor, and her union sits in the middle and is the largest. We've never received email or letters from other members. with 10,000 members it would be ridiculous to do so. Like any club members tend to display their dissatisfaction by canceling their membership. Everyone can express their opinions anonymously on the various aviation forums. It's how I learned about the other unions being created because her some weren't satisfied with the current leadership. I've met her union leaders while walking around the campus and I get the impression it is a thankless job. You're rarely credited with successes and any failure is your fault. As has been said before, you know a good negotiation when no one is satisfied.
