Lanyards don't get u a pay raise but it shows unity and support to the cause of better compensation for our career. Ask Dave Barger if he had an attorney negotiate his contract with jblue. We lost our medical insurance quality, dependability, premium pay trigger, low credit trips,etc... All done without consulting us or just by sending out an email. The only way to get what we earned by working hard daily, it's by unity and support of each other. Whether we like or not, unions get u contracts.
