The word is that PBS's a dealbreaker for the company and 20% is on the table I wonder how this is going to go?

No offense to you personally, but you are the perfect dupe or foil for the Company. We, the crew force, have told the Union we want no part in PBS. They have told us that PBS is a non-starter. Why don't we let them negotiate. You've taken the Company's rumor, laid it out here on APC as some gospel truth that it's going to happen, and generally just stirred the pot for no reason.
So now, while we're all juiced up and distracted with PBS, we fail to see something else get slipped in to the contract. All I'm saying is let's keep our eyes on the finish line. Let our negotiators do their thing. We have the final say on the contract and I would certainly think our MEC would like to bring us a TA that we can approve.
Now back to the rumors.
