Ya, they were just about to start negotiating. Darn, we missed our chance!

Another good resource, are the latest emails from the union. A very good read. They lay out a convincing argument and address your question perfectly.

I don't know the exact numbers because I don't know when everyone leaves. I know people have gone to United, Delta, Southwest, USAir/American, Jetblue, Spirit, and several have either retired or been fired.

Does NMB have to respond within a certain amount of time?

So the training department was backed up due to the sequestration and now the negotiations have slowed because the Teamsters wouldn't meet in DC.

Darn darn darn.....we were soooooo close too.

Just in case there is anyone left that isn't ****ed off, they want to make sure they cover everyone.
