Not to mention no other airline has ever successfully negotiated for retro retirement...there was no precedent...
I have a hard time believing that. For example the scab issue - and that's what they are - has been mentioned by pretty much every single person I've been in contact with. This issue didn't score high enough??
..but either way, why do you care? A sincere question.
Why do you care and why are you spending your time berating, or at the very least lecturing those of us who're having reservations about the TA? ..because that's what you're doing.
It will pass, the propaganda machine on both the ipa and the ups side will make sure of it.
What is really sad is that you, and many like you, actually believe this is a GREAT or an industry leading TA. I fear for our union's future.. :-(
