The UA contract is pretty much just your current one. Both UA and AA contracts were put together within the fog of merger. Yours will be the first real unified contract.
As you've been reading, everyone has a beef with something in the TA. Unfortunately, the MEC will pass it, and it will pass MEMRAT by 1% or more. It's a done deal, at Delta, our management tells us day in and day out we're leaders, stallions, but in reality we're a bunch of geldings. It's a shame, but the truth has to be told.
