Let's start with one simple problem. One bite at a time. How does one keep DPA at bay at a a time when they will capitalize on the crisis at hand? Ideas T, ideas.....
Just like the question, given the chance ALPA gets another shot at negotiation if this is:
1. Rejected, and,
2. Representation remains in their control and it is not lost to the DPA,
What would you do different to ensure a different negotiated outcome.
Try stretching yourself, T.
I don't know what I would have done differently since I wasn't privvy (like you apparently were) to actual conversations and data in the course of negotiations. I only have the resultant TA to vote on. I don't want to speculate on how it went down, what I could have done differently because that is a meaningless exercise. You feel differently. Fine. Have a blast. I am off to the gym in a few.
Oh and be sure to send in your DPA card, that'll show 'em.
