The MEC took a chance that there would be a next time, lost, and now they must eat that and look foolish. New blood is needed.
Lesson #1 eh? Let me ask how many negotiating committees you have served on and how many contracts you have negotiated? The MEC's strategy was decided by the reps you all voted for, and that strategy was approved by almost 70% of your peers.
We're lucky we got what we did, when we did. How is holding out working for Frontier right about now? Some of you are completely delusional.
