Compared to you, I am the smartest guy on the internet. What part shouldn't I say in person? The part that you accepted a subpar contract, or the the part that you are complaining about that afterwards when other people are doing the same thing? They probably don't know you anyway..... If you are talking about me voting "yes", I will give you my reasons: SIL integration. Being closer to JB in pay rates will get us closer to RS. I am under 20% 10 years in, but if we get DOH I will go down to almost 40% RS, and close to 80% RS as a 320 captain, so back to reserve is possible. Getting our rates closer to JBs will help. Get it now. Yes, I hate the bite of the apple BS, but our NC believes that, so why would you think they would get more if we voted it down? And obviously twice as many people voted yes, so I am not the only one who thinks that.. I don't like the TA, No health insurance, s#!t training pay, slope not fixed. All true. You believe voting no would have fixed that before the merger, I don't. You are more than welcome to vote with your feet, I hear Delta is hiring.

minuets + ALIGANT + interpunction = low tier
