This is typical of your defeatest speak. You speak management's and ALPA's view so well, they don't need to.

Another typical response from you. Find some far fetched fear, and use that as the reason that you should never even ask for something. Forget about fighting for something...you shouldn't even ask!

I plan on giving up nothing. This contract will be a pure gain - despite your best efforts to lower everyone's expectations.

Yes acl we know. There's no stopping it, so that's why we should just surrender and hope management appreciates it enough to be nice to us.

You have to be the weakest sounding pilot I have ever heard either on these boards or in person. I wish there was a way that you could live under the contract produced by your weak "surrender monkey" mentality, while the rest of us live under the contract that we were willing to fight for.
