They called this meeting. This could be it guys! This could be the meeting that pushes them over that edge...that makes them realize that a release is necessary. If not, and this just some stupid attempt to restart pointless negotiations...then we hit the pavement. Why risk angering even a single NMB member and possibly delaying a release.
Just out of curiosity, how long have you been at G4? Many of us have been affected by them not honoring the PWR and dealing with the degraded quality of life since we filed for section 6. The NMB is not going to care about a status quo strike because it is legal under the RLA. This law is in place to make sure that companies like G4 aren't able to lower the quality of life during negotiations to create a false sense of contractual gains once a new contract is in place. There has always been people here that say, "let's just give them one more chance!" If we had continued to put our trust and livelyhood in the false belief of they need one more chance, who knows where we would all be right now. Your concerns have been heard. Time to get on board and support 100%. See you on the picket line!
