This one is aggressive but still within the realm of reasonableness. In a true opener, reasonableness might not be your goal because you expect to negotiate down from there and meet somewhere in the middle. Coming on the heels of an overwhelming TA rejection and union upheaval, though, maybe you try to get management to bite on your opener before going down a longer & more difficult road (i.e. unleashing the dogs). This opener is something that, under certain circumstances, RA could defend to the shareholders. One of those circumstances might be a United snap-up. Well, guess what their new TA includes? Think their NC was talking to our NC?
