Yes indeed...don't you just hate those personal attacks?

Is it just that Carl, and TOGA, and Purple knew where the button was and didn't tell them, or is it because that button does not exist.
Yet another example of you not responding to the topic. Instead, you build a straw man having nothing to do with the subject, then show us your skill in knocking it down, all while hurling more personal attacks.
Nobody is talking about a "GET MORE" button. Only you are talking about that. What we ARE talking about is why you and other members of the MEC administration put out contract comparisons and road show documents that were heavily slanted and filled with half-truths for the express purpose of making
management's case to us. You, the negotiators and the rest of the MEC bureaucracy was on management's side. You did everthing you could to minimize any gains in the TA. They only mystery remaining is why you and your other colleagues did it.
