Sure we would have all taken an increase in our A plan. The company wasn't going to give it. It was their line in the sand. Believe it or not, biatch about it all you want. Guys who thought the A fund retirement was going to be improved were delusional. If you honestly thought that I can imagine why you won't let it go. I personally was shocked that we got an increase (however small) in the B fund.
This are simply my opinions, and I was a no vote, but it certainly wasn't because of the lack of improvements in the A fund. That wasn't going to happen, and if anything the union NC probably should have tempered those expectations because that was the source of a lot of angst over the new contract. Live and learn.
