Anyone without a degree has little reason to vote yes either... So, we'll see.

Can you blame the 9E MEC for negotiating what they believe is best for there pilots, especially if mgt came to them with this sweetener? My question is why did we put the 35% in our contract. Was that for our best interest? Have no idea why it's in there.

As far as degrees, those without can pick one up in minimal time/effort these days online. If the flow/interview is important to them personally, they will get it done ASAP.

Just my thoughts.

Merry Christmas to all!
