With all of the thread drift and the calls to strike we seem to have lost sight of the Elephant in the room. Our Negotiation Team has "unofficially" let it leak that they crafted a TA that they would like us to vote on. One, I emphasize ONE item was rejected by Dan Wells.(regardless of all of the bull**** he threw out at the meeting) A 20 hour duty day requirement. I personally do not want a 20 hour duty day. It prohibits like me from doing 2 things that are very important to me. One, taking needed supplies to our troops. Two, getting me over guarantee during my normal working footprint. Who knows? I may vote no to the TA. I would however like to have the right to. I have grown very weary, very quickly, of both paying dues/assessment, and being used as a pawn in the Atlas Air negotiations.
