I think we are on the same page w the nc. My (admittedly cynical) prediction on how they plan to apply leverage on the pilot group to get a slanted turd to pass is to talk about the time value of money and how we lose a ton of money by not quickly voting in a TA, and threaten to quit again.
I just don't trust them. I don't.
Parity for all or it isn't parity at all
One point on "time value", you need to get the mindset that this is C2020 and start from there. That's not ALPA's fault or the NC's fault, that is a gift to management brought to you by the RLA. Not much you can do about that. Maybe go in day 1 and declare an impass?
All we can do is expect nothing until the NLRB puts us into the 30 day cooling off period. This is the message to the company that they have drawn this out as long as possible and it's time to deal. THEN your job is not to vote in a TA unless you consider that 5 year deal acceptable for the next 9 years.
