Unfortunately, "what we already have" becomes amendable in 2010. At that point, we begin taking effective pay cuts as inflation eats away at our pay and the company drags its feet at negotiations. As I said before, the company can drag its feet forever until we begin the process of working towards a job action. And yes, we will be spending negotiating capital on keeping any regulated rule from changing contractually. That's just the way it works. I don't like it but I'm a realist. I want money now; as much as I can get and as soon as I can get it. Then, hopefully, around age 55 or 58, I can set the parking brake halfway through the before start checklist and walk off the airplane....but that's just me.
