We've all earned a greater slice of the pie. This TA does not reflect our contribution to corporate success. No need to over analyze.
We're under-appreciated and under-compensated for our efforts. Period.
The NC failed to secure a contract reflective of the statement above. You can pick small morsels to criticize me, but the greater message is clear.
You know it and so do I.
Don't get it twisted. Do your job, make your vote, take your check. Quit and move on if you must. Your call.
But don't insinuate that I'm uninformed, making comments out of context (clarification provided already), or should apologize for my position.
Your position in your first post is that people who vote yes on this TA are cowards. So I'm not going to insinuate you should apologize for that. I am telling you that you are wrong. While sporting a FITI bracelet may be a real Teddy Roosevelt moment in your life, I think the value you put in that decision further underscores your misconceptions about courage. I get that you feel personally assualted and insulted by the TA. You seem to have a real need to have the company tell you how important you are. If that's driving your desire to vote no, so be it. But don't characterize people who disagree with you as surrendering. They may simply require less from the company to have happy lives.
