You've been here for 2 years, great. You're going to learn all that the union leadership says isn't always true, same as what the company tells you. It's politics and the politicians make good money by being politicians. it's a battle of ideas, visions, company vs union leadership and within the pilot group, 2, 3 factions with opposite views, alliances are made and broken on a regular basis. You will learn many have corpses hidfden in their backyard too, a lot of personal back stories between individuals, a lot of bitterness from things of the past. Then you'll notice the guard dogs, the barking minority on the MB, there for each and every posts, same narrative, being usefull idiots for the controlling narrative right now. Hopefully you'll broaden your vision and start to understand that especially as a Year 2 pilot, your interests won't be priority for most. Some can wait until Section 6 in 2029 to get a better deal. Hopefully you can provide to your family, your kids and build your capital, your 401K nicely until then and won't miss the 150K+ you will lose in 3 years if no NEGOTIATING is done.
If you do believe that unconditional demands win negotiations, you need to start reading books, history and economics are very interesting subjects.

There are some very great alternative, some balanced pilots here who would do great leading this group, some without personal agendas, not trying to prove something one last time. Hope you chose the right faction the day comes.
