Yep and that's why we filed for mediation. Focused talks were a stall tactic and they were never serious. We got the NMB involved and the company decided they no longer wanted to be focused but wanted to open up every section and then bounce concessions at us to get us to negotiate current book. Now here we are a year and half later and they have put into motion their next stage of stalling by offering small raises paid for with work rules for a cost neutral deal. They know we won't bite but to the mediator it looks like "negotiating" unlike with the last contract where they outright demanded massive concessions. They learned from that mistake and this time have come prepared to push this thing out indefinitely. We should be beyond angry.
Got to witness a few single engine taxis today (no real wx anywhere) and a crew get dropped off at the airport in taxi last week. Are you kidding me?!!! Get a clue
