This infatuation with polling and surveys is a little dramatic. You can tell that the questions being asked are meant to elicit a specific response or put another way they don't care what you have to say as long as you "feel" heard and a part of the process. That last survey had a concessionary tone "what would you give for this" ideology that told me the NCs mindset was tainted. We still need to cut deeper with the remove/replace going on and have a more involved pilot group going forward. There is also bad gouge going around about what LTD policies are on the table. Somebody sent out an ask list to reference during the phone survey that said to ask for 50% of highest last 3 yrs when that only benefited widebody captains and nb captains on a 12 yr scale... the fo I just flew with hadn't done the math and was kind of shocked to see that our current Tumi TA Ltd would have paid him more and anyone sub 300k a yr. Sometimes you don't want to listen to the uninformed masses and let the SME do their thing but we have gotten to the point where even they have lost credibility in selling the tumi. Quite the pickle we are in!
