Like I told my rep, I will look at the TA myself once it's released. In these economic times, the TA should sell itself and stand on it's own merit. If the union tries to hard sell me with catch phrases like TVM or it's the best we can do, or we'll get them next time, then I will seriously question the return I am getting on almost 2% of my pay.

Every time a contract comes up there seems to be some artificial reason that we have to get it done and get it done yesterday. IF this contract does to bring significant improvements to the Delta pilots then vote no and let's wind our watch.
