To equate all those inadequacies with chemtrail and flat-earth stupidity is to shine a light on your own ignorance. Leveraging a quick pension improvement on the backs of those who would have to pay the QOL bill for decades was a fundamentally flawed and selfish approach.
Pretty sure I’ve never commented on internet anonymity Mr Cactusman. But with regard to your second comment, yep, and that’s why I didn’t equate the reasons why the TA was voted down with the stupidity of the rumor chasers on APC. As I said, I hope this website doesn’t reflect the pilot group as a whole, because if it does, we are absolutely screwed. People who believe added open time or company executives being restricted in stock trades are indicators of hidden wet lease agreements are either drunk or stupid. Possibly both. People who think the threat of a strike is “leverage”, while our negotiations are under the supervision of the NMB probably have no idea what the RLA is. And yet, you can find thread after thread posted to this website claiming all of the above. So yeah, I stand on my comments. If you believe the stupid rumors that get posted here, you are no better than any other internet conspiracy nut. And if that offends you, good. We’ve got a LONG way to go before we get another TA, and if people are less willing to bite off on rumors like MEC members sit around at Ruth’s Chris, smoking big cigars instead of working on our behalf, maybe we’ll have a better outcome next time around.
