I know I can count on most of my felliow pilots to be........well, pilots. It's a major reason why I expect a complete redeux in 2020 when the majority go for quick $$$. Looking forward to the mayhem and chaos.

Being smart with your money is good.
And the only other thing ya need to be happy is to never read another APA announcement beyond the title.. saves a lot of time. There are only two exceptions to just reading the title... 1) If its safety related, read on and 2) if its a vote on a contract (i.e. more concessions as always) vote No. Beyond that APA doesn't have anything worthy of your time (and #2 is probably just a waste of time too).
You would be much better served by reading the scheduling parts of the contract so you can out maneuver the dolts that don't know the contract, but voted yes.
