She smiled and shook her head and said UA pilots know that Ch9 is unique to UA and many customers love it. According to her, pilots are starting to leave it off more and more as they feel this is one way for them to "get back at management".

To me, this is an absolute pathetic attitude. I understand employees have gotten the raw end of the deal here, but don't take it out on the customers!

I agreee that taking it out on the customer is not the best thing, but how else can the employees get a message to management that they aren't happy? Picket WHQ? Not very effective, and management wouldn't care.
