We signed it knowing we would be below the others rates. DAL came out two weeks after us. Our voting was open still. BS they didn’t know our benefits ie disability lagged. Plenty were talking about it. Many were vocal about it. That’s the main reason I was a No TA2. Many just saw rates and boneus checks and yessied it.
