Timing is everything and we hold hiring potential leverage, but that's it. Everything else in this current contract is outdated crap and hardly worth the risk.

Look, turning turning down a contract when sitting at or near to the top is one thing. THIS IS NOT THAT THING. Like it or not, if you want legacy pay, and not Alaska legacy pay because they're whining too, go to a legacy. It always has been and always will be.

Passer, I'll give you a 5% chance you'll get to strike in the current climate. But as Jim Carey says, "so your saying I've got a chance".

Best of luck all. I'm waiting to READ the TA because this much speculation is useless.
