The SLI reach by the VX side has put such a sour taste in my mouth that I will vote for nothing that any of you want.

Do I wish any of you ill, absolutely not. I hope those 80% go to Dal, Amr, Uua, and are quickly widebody captains and you all have great careers. I hope our negotiations drag into 2023. I wish for very very few computable lines. I don’t think you even begin to understand the divide that is quickly growing at this company. It will get very very bad in my estimation. So here is to Allbiz being a 787 CA very soon at Uua!
Hahahaha
I'm a bit long in the tooth myself so I plan to make the best of it. When life gives you lemons......
I totally understand why you feel how you do but it's a negotiating tactic that all sides use. Have a look at all the other SLI proposals by the competing MECs in previous mergers.. . Always diametrically opposed.
I just ask that you don't cut off your nose to spite your face tho... There's a reason why most airlines are/have transitioned to PBS.. The airlines get improved labor efficiency but it is great for pilots too (the caveat being solid scheduling language of course). Win - Win if you ask me... You like winning, right?
