Oh, I agree you got shafted, but it would have been way worse under SL9. When I finally got to see SL9, I was like, "are you kidding me the MEC turned that down". But it was a few desperate loud mouths that convinced the MEC to kick it back and tell SWA hell no. It was more than obvious the unions at both airlines were self serving, when you consider SWAPA BOD voted all yes execpt for one no vote on SL9. And from what I'm hearing from over there, SWAPA has not changed much since then. Good luck man, I hope it all works out over there.
