This is where I am coming from. This is supposed to be a negotiation. Why should we accept the first deal brought forward? We know that the company will probably never pay all 18 hours, but they may meet us somewhere in the middle and we may be successful in further defining Fair Market Value so that it is not so ambiguous and one sided. If that means we have to reject the LOA in order to bring it back to the table then that is what we should do.
NO until there is some give and take. That is a negotiation. Not, "accept this or else". That is an ultimatum.
I don't think they "ALPA" is shoving this down our throats, hence the read, ask, think, vote.....my problem still is the major company gain vs the extra 2 hrs of pay....not enough to use my off time at home or my Required Rest Time on Overnights.
