Again I say aspirational, not contractual. You’re concluding it’s unlikely the company will do something this contract gives them every ability to do based solely on you not thinking they’ll do it. It would be fairer to say it may happen & it may not. We simply don’t know, but once this passes, we have no ability to influence that outcome.
This is the evolution of a bad contractual change. It starts with “The union would never agree to that.” Then it’s “The union agreed to it but the company won’t actually do it.” Then, “They’ll do it, but it will be rare.” And finally, “If people don’t like it, they can go to Delta.”
