It appears to me that the pilot and flight attendant groups are not going to cave in. Everybody is p***ed off, which for once I truly believe that we are united on this front. Let's see what happens.
Ah, the more it changes the more it stays the same. During the 2003 negotiations BB announced to all the employees in his Weekly Sermon to the Faithful that the greedy pilots, with their strike vote, had cost CHQ the contract for the United flying and also brought down the Plagues of Egypt.
