Yeah, I'm sure the company can't wait to give us a bunch of options that'll work out in our favor.

Specially since, at the height of leverage this pilot group has probably ever seen, we gave up on increasing the A plan (line in the sand), we gave up on properly fixing accepted fares (renamed them and created an extra column in VIPS, we still don't get the actual), we gave up on establishing real time trip trading (too complex), we gave away HILO (because they wanted it), etc., etc...

Now, let's go back to the table, with all the under-manning and retirement issues nicely resolved for the company, and ask for increased retirement benefits, now that modeshift seems to be a forgotten idea (brilliantly played by the corporation's negotiators). I see a win/win scenario as likely as those who voted Yes saw a chance of improving anything by turning down the TA.
