Don't you think though, that in 2015, with record profits, and the fact that you are still in an airline where you have a seniority number and would start again at the bottom at another airline, that it would behoove you to utilize the system that is in place to possibly reject a deal that is lacking several key work rules and other things?
Saying "go work somewhere else" was applicable back in the industrial revolution when people would fall into vats of oil and drown or get chopped up in some machine. We've evolved a bit since then, hence the whole concept of a union.
You're a highly trained professional. You don't have to go work somewhere else. You work for a good company. They're trying to call your bluff and they'll laugh all the way to the bank if you vote yes to something that doesn't "pass the sniff test." The last thing the CEO wants is to drag this out in front of the BOD. It's not going to take years if it's voted down. Wake up.
