......and there you have it folks. Any questions ?

In 2019 or whenever, nothing will change. Parker or whomever could slide a lowball offer across the table and you'd say the same thing and throw anyone and everyone else under the bus to pad your path just like now and at your previous regional.

But hey, at least your honest about your selfishness.

Might want to speak on something you actually know about. I was long gone from my previous company prior to said labor contract, so I never advocated either way. I wasn't there, so I could care less.

You've already told us everything we need to know about you in 6 words. "Gotta look out for number one" is as succinct as it gets.

Message received loud and clear.

You know- No one resents him putting his family first. CLEARLY our gripe is the insinuation that those of us who have taken the opposite stance- or not even the opposite stance, but who wish to dissect every line of the offer, somehow care less for our families because we choose to do so.
Furthermore I am highly suspect of anyone who implies that we are being gluttonous by wanting more than the company has offered. He said that if we were offered a milllllionnn $$$$ we still wouldn't be happy. This also strongly suggest that we aren't worth more than the company is offering and I must confess that I can not imagine how anyone who has been through what I had to go through to get here would make such a statement.

Texas Pilot, read the domicile updates titled "this is great" on the apa website and understand why so many of us are no votes even though the increased pay comes a year early versus arbitration . This isn't just about this contract but future contracts. Anything with any concession no matter how small should be a no vote.

I fail to see a concession, other than the Sim at night.

Did you read it? Did you see the part about how they had financial value? Do u think management wants it just because?

What you meant to say was "I fail to see a concession to ME, I haven't considered the other 10k+ pilots".

Well I do get a free turkey dinner if they use me tmrw in the CLT crew room

Not trying to bash on Texas Pilot, just want him to realize that it's insane to accept concessions during a time of insane profits.
