STILL haven't sent in my DPA card.....but if THIS is the best our negotiators have to present (pay-wise) in section 6, it will get very ugly. Long-time ALPA supporter. This truly makes me sad. Am I the only one who remembers the Steenland/McClain exchange where Steenland indicated that these pay-cuts were "...permanent reset of labor wages..." and McClain responded that "...no, these wages/work rules are merely temporary 'safe-harbor' for our company in a perfect storm environment of bad (airline) events..." So the question becomes, 'Who was right?'
