The point is that what you assert is the best way may not be possible considering pattern bargaining and corporate governance. This problem is made worse by being 3 years past the amendable date, 4 in United’s case. If you see no problem here, than there’s nothing I’m going to say to convince you.
Hopefully we won’t have too long to wait in order to compare notes and timestamps to determine who had the most accurate take. I would love to see a 2 year deal:
2.5% effective 2020
5.5% “ “ 2021
9%. “ “ 2022
5.5% “ “ 2023
5.5% “ “ 2024
But, I think that’s unlikely unless UALPA pulls a rabbit from the hat.
You. You said it was your plan:
”
We could never get another pay raise again and instead get signing bonuses to make up for the lower rates relative to our peers.”
You’ve clearly convinced yourself of your own genius, but I’m not convinced. I guess I’m just not smart enough to understand. Pattern bargaining off of signing bonuses does not make sense.
