He says in the letter that he meets with management all the time? What for, other than to present the ever-growing list of contract violations and grievances?

Another meeting today. Out of which we'll hear...what? The usual dismissive threat from management that "we have to remain competitive" in order to be viewed as a favorable recipient of whatever largesse AAG wants to hand down?

Maybe we'll present more grievances and air past complaints so that we can get the same tired responses about the flight file, how management likes having almost 40% of us on reserve, but don't forget about the flow and how great it is to be here!

Maybe we'll get no news. Nothing changes.

Maybe we'll get some good news. My cynicism could be misplaced. I'm not holding my breath.
