Well, first I'm going to assume that you meant to say, "Trust me, I agree that we
shouldn't be bailing anyone out."
Now... if we had agreed to snap backs on the wage concessions (like you suggest), then we would have been getting HUGE pay increases right about now if not sooner. You seem to think that's okay, and you also
say that we shouldn't be bailing the company out. So why is it
not okay for us to get HUGE pay increases now until the company shows "six consecutive quarters" of profit with a 7-8% minimum margin? Do you see the inconsistency? I'm not trying to bust your chops, ACL, but you really are starting to sound like a company negotiator.
