You're 100% correct. That was indeed our worst case scenario. But that's not what our "tireless" MEC admins were out saying during the road shows. Remember the talk of: "NO votes will likely cause management to disengage with us completely...and we just know that any subsequent offers will be MUCH worse than this one". What about: "This is a time sensitive deal. We can't divulge their plans, but it requires this deal to be done quickly." And so on, and so on.

Our MEC administrators purposely created worst case scenarios that were untrue. That's why the really bad actors are mostly gone now. But that's just putting a band aid on the problem. We line pilots simply have to do a better job of calibrating our Bull Sh!t guages. Regardless of who comprises our MEC administrators.
