Its a negotiation. You bargain. Its a give and take.
Now while Ive always hammered B6 for taking from us, this negotiation has NOTHING to do with the past. It lives in the present.
I agree that the pay rates are not Deltas, the profit sharing is not SWA's and the signing bonus is not Spirit's...etc.
HOWEVER, if we wait and look at the contract as a WHOLE, it may be on par with SWA.
When you cherry pick aspects to persuade a NO vote, without having the entire story, you are in error.
What if the reserve rules are better than Delta, the pairing construction is superior to SWA and everything we have is better than Spirit or Alaska? Do you have the objectivity to be clear headed?
To expect an industry leading "everything" is naive at best and idiotic at worst Q.
I do not think you are unintelligent Q, I believe you are blindly angry and are looking for revenge and perfection; both of which are immature expectations.
And believe me, I know plenty about immaturity-ask my wife
