Ok bro..
Getting a good contract is not a given, even with high turnouts for the picket and strike vote. While I’m pleased that the union feels there is progress, there is a long way to go. For me, anything put out as a TA without SIGNIFICANTLY improved work rules particularly for reserves is a no vote.
It wouldn’t surprise me if the company’s recent appearances at the negotiating table is nothing more than an attempt to show the mediator they are negotiating in good faith, but that they have no intention of agreeing to any meaningful improvements in the near future. The coming recession / downturn makes it favorable to them to slow play things.
