I know it’s not a sexy narrative, but that’s what happened.
What about the all the "we already make enough money" concessionary votes
before you got hired that put us behind in just about every measurable way?
We finally had a union that represented the pilots instead of management, with a goal for a change, and the momentum to achieve it. We blew it. As usual.
That said, with the level of resolve this pilot group has, I am surprised we got as much as we did this time. At least I can work more to make up the difference.
