This will not happen if JO keeps filling his new hire classes, since your lack of improvement in pay and benefits shows he is in no hurry to give an inch. If you and others would stop trying to convince others of how great Mesa is, you'd be helping your group to ad pressure on JO to actually give you guys a better contract, period end of the story.
I really believe that if, and I know it's a big if, Eagle along with Republic pilots vote NO, then maybe the turnaround has a chance...
I agree with you, however I stick by my claim that everything that I post is accurate and realistic. The fact that we are filling classes has everything to do with additional airplanes/flying along with the promise of seniority that goes along with said expansion. The quality and professionalism of our crews is the only thing that separates mesa from any stain on the wall failed company; not our award winning contract/pay/benefits.
