I think what you are seeing now is the direct result of C2012.

I thought at the time and I still believe that we got far less than we deserved and far less than the company could afford to pay. I think the corporation's financial performance has proven that correct. 4,8,3,3 paid for with profit sharing givebacks, productivity enhancements and including scope relaxation was not what I had in mind.

Then there is the sacred "process".
I was offended by what the administration did to get that TA past the MEC.
The process was hijacked by a handful of powerful insiders. Both the reps AND the line pilots got blind-sided and manipulated.

And here we are again with management pushing for a fast deal.

I can't speak for anybody else but I am here banging on pots and pans in an attempt to keep the same thing from happening again. Most of the same people are still involved with ALPA in elected and (mostly) unelected positions. In my opinion, they have to be watched very closely or they will impose their judgment again. Sorry, but I don't trust them.
Fool me once...
