I will get UTS.
Seriously, I know its a pill to swallow for the sell back guys. You are in the minority, on that point though.
Again, this was all about scope/sched and retirement.
Ive spoken to the reps, read most of the TA (that I could understand),
viewed the videos, and Im comfortable with this TA.
I understand that it is not what everyone expected or wanted; Not sure if that exists.
Good luck to all.
I read the whole thing with my college reading level glasses and plenty of contract experience behind me. I see dangerous language, glaring omissions, and of course substandard pay.
We need to VOTE NO, fix the contract, then Vote Yes to TA 2.0.
