"I will tell you that you have unified the SWA pilot group by turning down the proposal. We were arguing and having heated discussions prior to your MEC vote. Now we are becoming more and more focused. Many are now open to ALL options available to our pilot group. That is sad because those options that they now want SWAPA and management to explore are unpleasant. I too have begun to question whether this deal was really worth it. That Deere John letter is still swirling around in my mind."

Above is quoted:

What are the "unpleasant" options? We are on the street? So if I read correctly---the infraction is turning down the proposal. So the options are not---hey, maybe we both can figure this out. Hey, let's see what went wrong, etc. No---the penalty is immdediately "unpleasant options".
