After reading the latest Joe Thomas letter I can't help but wonder if "The Math Guy" is the nick name he tried to give himself just like George Costanzo tried to give himself the nick name "T-Bone." His nick name should be "The Made Up Facts Guy."

Joe Thomas seems to have made the connection of voting down the TA to other employees getting a 14.5% pay raise, which results in our Profit Sharing being reduced. Doesn't Joe Realize the company was going to do this whether or not we voted the TA down? We all understood they wanted us to agree to trade PS for pay so they could do the same for other employees. Now they decided not to wait on us, and reduce PS for other employees. If Joe were honest in his letters he would include the fact the TA he was so in favor of included language that would have reduced our PS even further by changing the PTIX formula. Bonuses for management would have a significant effect on our PS, but that goodness we didn't sign off on that. Our negotiators need to ensure that garbage doesn't get into our next TA. More reason why so many of us are fine with the current PWA than the Pandora's box TA15 was.

I really hope this Joe Thomas fella is not elected. His distortions and straw men are hard enough to stomach during an election cycle. I can't imagine having to suffer through even more of his half-truths and exaggerations if he's elected. Pilots better be voting: You can't just vote for a TA and then go back into hibernation and expect something better when you wake up again.
