I would rather lose my job than take another pay cut or get a crappy contract but you ASA guys seem more than willing to let mgmt walk all over you. I'm afraid we are in for a long and painful integration.
Not exactly, I expect significant gains in terms of compensation and improvements to our work rules over OUR current contract. Gains over our existing rules with higher pay would be good enough for me.
The XJet people seem to have unrealistic expectations for ASA.
