As for the "who cares?" argument... I certainly care about whether or not the company acquires more airframes. I guess whether I want to fly them or not, I want more flying at mainline and more pilots behind me. Maybe being stuck on the bottom for 6 years waiting for hiring instead of being a new hire straight into a line gives us different perspectives. I'm not losing sleep over it, but "who cares?" is kind of a ridiculous perspective on this.

For the life of me I cant figure out why any of the parties allowed the contingency into the purchase agreement and TA this time around, but it's clearly there. It's a very clear, real consequence of our vote. If you are really planning to run for an LEC seat, you really need to at least honestly acknowledge that there are pros and cons to both sides of every deal we are likely to make. Pretending like the downsides of the course we choose don't exist isn't going to get us very far.
