If the company operates counter to status quo requirements, then I would expect my MEC to pursue whatever action is appropriate to hold the company accountable.
I would be surprised if the CAL pilots expected anything less if the shoe was on the other foot.
In the meantime, the NC will continue to focus exclusively on the JCBA without distraction.

No parting shot and you missed the point. The grievance will be heard soon, on the expedited basis of the TPA. I would always expect that any MEC should grieve anything they have issues with. What I said was that I hope that once the grievance has a ruling, the pilots like you will be more concerned about the JCBA.
