Yup, pretty much as rickair said, the “negotiation” was just a smokescreen. They never even came out with an actual proposal that we could see or build upon. It was all just done as working documents bound by NDA’s. They had faith that just like the Kasher arbitration, this one would favor their positions. They sat on their hands and bought themselves 6 extra months of cheap labor while literally laughing in our faces. (BM’s admission to sacrificing our relationship with management). I think his quote should printed out on a sticker in big bold letters next to a 2020 and placed on every rollaboard, flight case and on our next lanyard, to remind us of who the real enemy is!
