This is EXACTLY the excuse strategy being studied by the MEC administration. "The reason we had to lump profit sharing and the Atlantic JV grievance all into this Section 6 negotiations is so the pilot group could discuss and vote on all 3 issues."
What's the reality? By lumping all 3 items in to Section 6, nobody will ever be able to prove how much we, yet again, self-funded our pay rate gains.
