But a company's goal in negotiations is to: 1) offer a contract that will be accepted by 50% of the pilot group + 1, and 2) string out negotiations and wear down our negotiators and pilot group, so that when we are finally offered a TA, they satisfy objective #1. I believe we fell victim to this strategy.

Yes, I think the company succeeded in stringing out negotiations for as long as possible and wore us and the negotiators down. Yes, it passed pretty overwhelmingly. But I think you're missing the point of what was being talked about in this thread. VBD/TDY pilots no longer have rental cars or long stay hotels. Why? Absolutely no language was put into the contract, even though VBD/TDY existed well prior to the contract implementation. That's our own fault.
