It has nothing to do with the union elections, it has to do with bidding on the UAL RFPs.
Will, while I appreciate that you provide relevant info sometimes and, dare I say, that you actually care about the plight of everyone in the pilot group. But there are two sides to every argument and you rely heavily on condescension to make your point. It's not that your position is invalid, but who wants to listen?
Personally, I'm all for PBS. But if the TA is a pile of crap then it doesn't matter what deadline is looming. Until the details are out, everything in between is speculation.
