The reaction should go something like this,
"Great, my MEC tried to get me super priority on the UAX jumpseat and messed it up! It worked for TSA and GOJets but now the other UAX pilots are mad because I'm higher on the list than their own pilots on their own aircraft when I jumpseat! AND those UAX carriers have been getting the runaround from my company and my MEC for over a year now with some mumbo jumbo about no money to change the computer to fix it. Seems like there was enough money and motivation to get this "change" to the screwed up situation were in now.
I didn't know my MEC was trying to get super priority on the UAX carriers and would definatily support their claim that the computer needs to be fixed.
It sucks they finally had to resort to threats to get this resolved but being a union member I can understand how it takes a strong message to get the point accross. It sure worked for us in the summer of 2000."
Or some variation of this.
Look, I'm not your enemy and I actually see your point. But you aren't accounting for human nature.
What would you do in this situation:
"You step in line for tickets to a movie. Unbeknownst to you, you cut off another patron, and you get the last ticket to the now sold-out show. The other patron could politely inform you of what happened, and politely ask you for his rightful ticket (after paying of course). Instead, the patron yells at you and threatens to slash your tires so you can't get home.
Do you
A) Say you are so sorry, give him the ticket, and say thank you for not slashing my tires ? or
B) Kick his &*&"
I'm pretty sure I know what you, me, and anybody else would do.
