Yes it’s true the DO did do that. And it was very disappointing to hear. We are fighting for home basing. It’s the crux of contract 2021 along with better pay, better health care and retirement options. It’s good advice to know what you’re getting into at any employer. But we are moving away from the Miami centric thinking of both business models and union contracts. We have plenty of commuters here. I can’t speak to their personal opinions but they’re making it work. For now we continue to grind it out. The flip side is a chance to grow with us. Are we perfect? No. But we are hiring.
