Ah yes, the clasic "don't like it? then leave" response; very nice.
Just one point of interest, don't forget that there are only a handful of pilots that voted yes because they liked this POS. Majority of yes voters were either:
1. AFRAID to send the same clowns back in for FEAR they might screw things up worse (I'll be waiting for the 'are you going to join the NC next time response)
2. Afraid of the MEC/LUBY induced uncertainty over the 'gray area' of voting no (they chose not to add a contingency in the back to work agreement spelling out WHAT IF the TA is rejected. They WANTED uncertainty) BTW my 3K just about covered the taxes and the 12 hours I lost during the strike - unbelievable! we paid for our own strike!
3. Just wanted it over with.
4. Didn't bother to read the fine print (float going away/red-green give away, etc)
SO, 74% of the people you are flying with are either ignorant or weak... just my opinion.
