3) Pierce did this because he has a dubious past

THUS

1) Pierce was probably promised a management job by Abbott for getting Cal PS

2) Pierce will take this job in the near term

TO PREVENT ABOVE

1) Pierce must be thrown out by Cal pilots some of whom are scabs but nevermind the majority of Cal pilots will never 'get it' unless Pierce is tossed

2) Pierce will hold no grudge against Cal pilot group for throwing him out after securing PS thus will not go to management out of spite

3) Pierce will learn lesson and fly the line for the rest of his career

THUS
Company will cave and Contract completed in short order
I agree with your assessment of the situation. I would add that if Pierce had the interest of the CAL and UAL pilots at heart and a strong Union on the property, he'd resign. There is NO WAY around it, the UAL guys don't trust him and many of the CAL guys don't trust him. The only thing he'll be good for are the little side deals brought to him by the company and we know what they do! The sooner he moves on the better we'll all be.
