Sacrificing QOL in so many places to subsidize future retirement that may not be there seems like a bad idea.

• Flat pay raise that only brings us up to current inflationary levels, maybe...
• No back pay to amendable date, so are we splitting those dollars 50 / 50 with the Company?
• 15yr to 14yr, 15yr to 13yr, 15yr to 12yr, so If I have been here five years how does that help me? (I am am a 17 yr guy)
• R24 to R16.... How do I commute in?
• SMU... didn't see that one coming, complete give back
• Substitution lives on....
• Scope? SPR.... 1% of airframe shrinkage is on the horizon without a doubt, wet lease while parking jets = fewer FDX pilots = slower career progression, so if I have been here 5 years how does this help me?
• AVA changes,..... Productivity increase subsidizing retirement
• Implementation schedule over 4 years.... seen that play out before
• No penalty language if they do not get around to their phase in per the implementation dates... Trust us it'll be different this time, you'll love the text message notifications, when feasible of course

I appreciate everyone's hard work, I spent two hours reading every blue letter, red letter and green letter of the TA.
Easy Choice... Hard No
