Would you be happy if DALPA did ask for mid contract restoration, & the company said no? Just curious. Looking for pilot group input.
Our union leadership goes in and simply says: "Bankruptcy wages are over. We're here to negotiate a significant pay bump outside of Section 6. We're willing to give nothing in return even though we're in mid contract. Just like we gave huge pay cuts to you for nothing in return outside of Section 6. If you agree, our pilots increased motivation will help with a lot of your p!ss poor managerial decision. If you disagree, our pilots lack of motivation to help will not go unnoticed by you."
The problem is that our union is incredibly weak. IMO, they are nearly indiscernable from management.
