In any case, that SHIP has sailed, and there really is no benefit in the debate about that rejected TA.
As a couple guys posted, it is certainly incorrect.
The NA15 ship has sailed, thank goodness, but the P2P ship has not.
I think you highlight the reason P2P can never be successful: people make mistakes and misinterpret. It can be honest or nefarious. But bad info is bad info.
This is not a knock on Jim, who is working diligently and with great integrity.
However, his gaffe is noteworthy.
P2P is obsolete. It used to work (or at least be justifiable) because the pilot group was largely uninformed and isolated from the discussion and each other.
Social media and the MD11 have changed all that forever.
The best way to spend P2P dollars is to disband P2P (and expensive roadshows) and replace with a robust series of interactive webinars with all the negotiators and subject matter experts.
