You don't have any leverage, your union is ready to drop the one list anyway, they realize that this is the only viable solution. It is HIGHLY unlikely that you would get any guarantee of "future growth" whatever growth there could ever be left after the aircraft Skywest is about to acquire in the next month or so. Best you can hope for is something like ASA has that lets you keep what you currently have and not lose anything in an aircraft transfer.
Nothing says they even need to talk with you, from what I understand it is a take it or leave it deal. You say no they walk away and then wait a few months and buy the scraps in a chapter 7 sale. Either way I don't care, skywest staying independent is more important than anything else out there.
I think it’s funny that 2 weeks ago you guys were saying the one list will happen no matter what but now you've moved the goal posts and finally have come to terms with that fact that one list will not happen. What will the story be next month?
This is all happening exactly like I thought it would.
