Yeah. Honestly IDK, but as much as I want QT back, I’m not inclined to sign the petition.
I realize there is no contractual basis for it, but I think the union should be at least REGULARLY bugging the company about it. IDK that there is anything else they are doing that they couldn’t at least put a bug in their ear.
Again, I realize this isn’t contractual, but I honestly think that there could be a very good argument that the company violated the status quo and that taking this away was retaliatory in nature and a work action. I think there is a pretty direct correlation between when the company has taken away QT when they didn’t get something or other from the pilots/union. You know if things were the other way, the company would jump all over the union and pilots and get a court injunction.
