This is my first airline but I’m catching on to the negotiating strategy and it’s painful. We continually get punched in the nose until we negotiate that we can’t be punched in the nose. Then we’re continually punched in the ear until we negotiate that we can’t be punched in the ear. Then we’re continuously punched in the eye until we negotiate that we can’t be punched in the eye anymore.
It gets really bad at contract time. then we start to get punched and kicked in five places but union “negotiating capital” says we can only negotiate the pain to stop in 2-3 places.
