I can only see the first one happening if CAL does that ... but I doubt it highly ...
As for the second ... our pilot group isn't going to roll over and let management write our contract. I think we're all sick and tired of all the memos, all the emails, all the bulletins ... always changing the rules to suit them. We, as a pilot group are not going to let management decide our work rules anymore. Sure, we'll negotiate with them, but they're not going to say "this is the way it's going to be so deal with it"
