"Amend our current contract to include
a retirement plan that is company funded, pay rates in excess of inflation 20% minimum, reserve rule improvements, LCA/ PI rates 5% above DAL and a me too clause"
Thank them for their time and hang up.
Do NOT get into a discussion.
A long time ago in a former life I worked for a company that did polling. If they’re conducting a poll where they are asking you how much you agree/disagree with various statements this will likely result in your phone call getting thrown out and your voice not being heard. You don’t get statistically meaningful information by calling a % of pilots and letting them rant.
