Yeah why are we still hoping for better? When people show you who they are you should believe them the first time! Can we stop playing games now? I've been repeating this from the beginning. There's no give and take to achieve a deal. We should make clear what our position is and don't move an inch towards theirs. They got all of their carry the last 6+ years. I'm a no vote on anything less than industry leading pay, benefits and retirement. F no concessions. It's time for no compromises.
This whole process has been a disrespectful slap in the face and the public statements aimed directly at our financial well being is a declaration of terms that require nothong less than capitulation.
You can split hairs and look for silver linings in the steaming pile of $!?+ that comes out of these "negotiations ". Just like some of you can fly every damn day if you want to. But never say no one tried to counsel for a different direction.
