Kirby really does want for United to be a premier airline for our customers and stockholders. His job is to provide that at the lowest possible cost, including labor contracts. ALPA’s job is to define what our cost will be. Our previous MEC was totally at fault for even entertaining the Tumi TA. Kirby smiled and signed it as fast as he could, hoping that we really were stupid enough to ratify it. That’s his job.
