Funny, my FO on my trip thinks it is a slam dunk Yes. Also, our jumpseating 767ER FO said it was a no brainer Yes as well. Both cited that history is littered with examples of not getting materially superior agreements after failed ratification or rejected TAs. Both also thought the NMB would laugh in DALPA's face when we demand more. Besides, looking at fixed pay plus PS, who could argue with AA + 20% or more?
Must admit, I wasn't going to argue against them. Smart FOs.
I was going to block your posts, but note I realize the pure comedic value they contain. Please don't stop!
You don't seem to understand that many of the NO voters aren't demanding MORE they are demanding LESS of the LESS. The "FOs you flew with" will figure it out in anyone else's "cockpit".
But continue...The more wackos we have defending this thing, the more rational thinkers will realize the answer to POS2015 is NO!
