you guys are both correct. It failed because of the terrible pay rates, back pay, and all the concessions. I was also heavily influenced to vote NO because of the unbelievably deaf sales pitch by all but one block rep and, of course, Pat and his NC. Where are the furloughs, guys? What you did to us is unconscionable.
