No one knows what will happen if the TA is voted down.
Negotiations will eventually resume.
.... but when? (before peak, next year)
...by whom? (this NC team or a new one)
How broad or narrow will the topics be?
While many have articulated a relatively long list of shortcomings with the TA, it's quite clear there are only a few majors issues, that if fixed quickly, would make the TA much more palatable.
While many may say it's premature --- I think asking the "Nay" voters to rank order their "Top 10 issues with the TA" is a worthwhile exercise
(Heck, even the "Yes" voters can join in --- since they readily admit there are portions of the TA they dislike too)
I think it will become quite clear, that an empowered negotiating team, given a clear mandate from the pilots, can quickly reach a new, very focused agreement with the company
If you disagree, please humor me and play along anyway.
What are your Top 10 issues with the TA that you want fixed?
Rank order please --- #1 is what you want fixed most...#10 least
...and heck, you may have less than 10 issues, holding you back from voting "Yes".
Remember, once this TA is defeated --- its OK to be more focused!
