The Moronic Variant


While the world has learned of the Omicron variant it appears another variant has been identified out of YUL – The Moronic Variant.


Scientists have teamed up with the mathematicians that are still studying the claim on how voluntary overtime and not following collective agreements on vacation buybacks has zero impact on crew planning. Originally identified as the “Dipshit” variant, this variant was traced back to an exclusive Facebook group that had members concerned that this virus could spread to the membership causing the symptoms of listing for overtime and getting “brain fog” resulting in forgetfulness about furloughs.


It appears the Moronic variant indeed spread to Vancouver via a flight operated by an infected member who is the newly acclaimed vice chair of the YUL base which is also known as the “ALPA can suck it” base or “ALPA: too much money & look at what you get for all your dues here” base.


He decided it would be best to get to his first ever union meeting by showing some solidarity to his fellow furloughs by chowing down on some overtime at the trough. It was stated by the chair of the base that he was “OK with this” as he noted “the gem” that MEC Reps fly on business standby economy. It appears he has succumb to the viral symptoms of brain fog as he forgot about the fact that lowly relief pilots, pilots heading to sim or commuters pond scum also fly in economy.


It was a heartfelt moment as the membership realized there hasn’t been an actual in person leadership summit for 2 years now. He noted he had been “working his ass off” from home while his constituents flew throughout the planet during the pandemic. The sacrifices from home this leader has made will surely put him on the wall with other leadership greats who lead from their armchairs.


The leader wasn’t done here as he submitted his motion for an honorary lifetime membership to a well celebrated “company man”. It was emotional plea for an ACPA great who was part of the infamous “Group of 27” who worked “tirelessly”. While there may not be much debate on that – the question is who he worked hard for: the company or the membership. And given he is now volunteering for the company after years of being a leader at a union – he too may have succumbed to the variant. Perhaps this vote will be the antigen test.
