It's not that your contract is below average, but maybe below what the Envoy guys would like their to be.. so they voted no twice and now they have an even lesser last deal on the table. The 12 year rates proposed for PDT, compress into less years the same max rates that existed for 18 years on the older contract. Better pay sooner, if actually stop to look at it.
Then there's the resentment that some may have accepted airplanes stolen from them.. somebody's gotta do it. They are having challenges staffing up, other aren't.
