You represent DALPA and frankly, the worst parts of it. You want us to sit back and color while the "adults" make the decisions with the information that is too "privileged" for the masses to see. You ask us to trust you when there is no trust left in the bank.
For the most part, I've been staying off the forums to wait for the contract. I'm cautiously excited, but the NNP put a lot of angst back in my world.
You have had some great posts in the past, but drop the whole trust me thing and stop talking down to us. What I saw in the NNP is concessionary in nature so far, but I'm sure it's because I'm "too stupid" to see the awesomeness it contains.
I'm hoping/praying that there is more to see. They (the NC) have done some good work outside section 6, so I am hoping for a linear result.
I think you are being a little overly sensitive to his post. I read it as his just explaining the things that most guys really do not understand.
I understand your angst, I really do. These boards aren't helping, because of the large number of guys that have already launched into DefCon 4. We know very little yet, and to base much on this NNP is really silly, and to try and project things not talked about is just plain stupid. We have NO idea about pay.. NO idea about scopo, yet there are those that are in high warble over that speculation. DO not fall into that trap.
