Let me remind everyone how convenient it was for the company in previous TAs to compare our pay rates to bankrupt passenger carriers, only now we’re not as good as them, not worth as much because, lets be honest here, our union was initially asking for far less than what the Delta TA proved to be, an ask of which, had the company agreed, would have been cheap, comparatively speaking. Now, the company can’t stomach the idea of having lost an opportunity. now, we’re only as good as the UPS narrow body pilots with an old contract.

just my opinion. I could be wrong.
