I certainly understand the frustration of no surveys prior to the Tumi TA...look where that lead. Nothing is gonna be happening for you guys until this becomes a TA and is MEMRAT'ed by the Delta pilots. That will be at least 8 weeks. Your new stable of reps might as well gather more useful, relevant data to better represent your "new" desires. I mean, it's not like they are conducting the poll themselves. They pay someone to do polling , collate the data and then the reps review it and give the NC new marching orders.
This is exactly what I would want if the roles were reversed
JMHO
This is the same MC and NC who didn’t do a SINGLE poll prior to agreeing to that abomination TA1. After getting massive blow back, this MC and NC doubled down on that abomination. MANAGEMENT then initiated the pull back from it. Then and only then this MC and NC decided to conduct their 1st poll, and the questions in that poll were very leading and ineffective. Even worse they agreed with management to push close date of TA1 voting to November 1st. Then this MC and NC decided that someone needed to be sacrificed. The Chairman NC resigns and then this MEC replaces him with another NC retread, who decides we need another poll!!
This same MC and NC couldn’t finish anything by November 1st, got put on ice by management, and got completely out maneuvered by management with them giving us a 5% raise early. The are the worst combo of reactive, passive, manipulated by management, all the while now trying to talk and look tough. Just STOP 🛑.
Another poll is changing sh*t. A new MC and NC might, but getting the trust back of this pilot group will be a long process. All of this amateur hour stuff is just costing us $$$ and more importantly time. UAL ALPA is definitely currently a clown 🤡 show.
