Starting to feel like management has created a deadline. Always something artificial to create fear.

"This sale ends Saturday and there will never be another one. Ever."

"We have leverage, but it only lasts so long. We need to wrap this up!"

Here and on the line, the universal sentiment of the line pilots is, wind the watch. We are in no hurry whatsoever. Slow and steady.

This is the best negotiating environment we will ever have. Let's repair the damage and get the PWA we deserve.

IMO management wants to throw just enough money in the pot for a yes vote while gutting sick leave, adding mandatory min month and eliminating first officers bidding with LCAs.

Managment wants to rush us so there are no gains in vacation, min day, training day, etc.

Our leader promised not to rush C2012 then did exactly that. Management played him for a fool. They kept him on their path start to finish.

Make your voice heard.

No one knows better than we do not to rush. The result of rushing is never pretty.
