Stan, Laughing Jakal, Boomerbus, all these dudes, don't give a rat's a$$ about payrates. They see this TA through the lens of leaving in the next couple of years, just like Pat.
To those of us trying to stop this decades-long negative trend in QoL which we cannot seem to escape here (because the company plays us expertly), we are going up against the company's low offers AND the union's sales jobs.
When you see our pilots settling for barely matching inflation, and our NC/Speculator's charts full of asterisks, and still insisting on calling our payrates a win, it gives you an idea of what we are up against with this vote.
