I guess that's where the philosophical difference is, I see the fact that we don't have "many improvements" as you state as a huge concession during this environment.
But FDXLAG, "I'm not going to debate you" (line from 'Fargo' I love), I know where you stand. So, we will let the majority decide.
I know you don't want to debate me before you debated me but a concession was giving up CGN for 2 three percent raises. It was a concession for DALPA to give up trips out of the FOs bid pack and profit sharing. It is not a concession to keep what you have and get some improvements.
But you don't know where I stand. Real time trip trading is a disappointment to me. No fix to sick notes is a disappointment to me. That being said with this TA I think Fedex Pilots are easily the most highly compensated in the industry and will be for at least the first 4 years of this contract. If after the TA is released I no longer think that I will vote no. Either way I will be fine with whatever the majority decides.
*by compensated I am not just talking pay.
