Two, and most importantly, it makes no sense to vote yes for a PoS contract just on the basis that it's a PoS. Those that have CJOs from Big 4 might see a month of the new raise before they leave and those that don't might never get one. It's most self serving to "wait and see if something's better" than to take lesser and be stuck for a career. The vote, whenever it happens, will be very quick but the contract taking affect might be 6 to 9 months after the signing.
Sooner or later, this pilot group is gonna have a reckoning.
the equation might change if your thought process sees some sort of retro/bonus check. If you’re holding on a class date it might be a quick payday. Or if you’re dead set on leaving and only making your time here temporary any pay rates are better than current pay rates .
Or, you’re sub 5 years from retirement all of the above.
No one will ever tell you to your face they want a weak CBA for a quick payout.
