However, the nonsense that you people continue to spew is becoming pretty comical in nature. Now that the XJT TA is out it is pretty clear that your doomsday prophecies of how PSA's contract was going to be shoved down everyone's throat is pretty much garbage.
They have not one single(negative) item in common.
I said this a few posts ago and since no one answered I'll throw it out there again:
Other than our pay caps(which won't amount to much $ after a blended rate increase and 1% yearly increase), and the 10 years, what exactly makes PSA's contract so terrible compared to others? Some of the stuff I saw from XJT looks pretty brutal....movable days off, MMG language, captain as FO, contact with company on rest, rig loss......etc, etc.
Give me a break. You people are always spouting off about how "pay rates don't mean anything without supporting language".......Unless we can bash another group about them.

^^^^gets it.
It doesn't matter how who voted. It's a diplomatic process I respect. So, we are left with what's left, which is the new contract. Which I will echo what Pagey is saying... Things are actually going the way they are supposed to. Surprise surprise. And before you people jump on here and say management will lie to us...think for one second imagine a contract that's followed. Mind blowing isn't it?
