The "city purity" Optimizer side letter was signed on Aug 16, 2006. It was kept secret from everyone, including the PSIT/SIG until January 2007.
So we were essentially sold this contract without all the information.
We were out and out LIED to.
Had I known about this letter, I would have not voted for this contract.
After all, QOL and work rules were a crew force cornerstone.
