It was the collective "us". You're right that we have come a long way and I'd like to think that it isn't as much of a majority rule situation as it is a one for all and all for one type. Just remember that the #1 seniority guy on our list had nothing to immediately gain by turning down a JA yesterday

I can take a furlough to protect to our contract, in fact I prefer it to giving money to billionaires, but the thought that my wife and kids may be on the street to protect the date of hire for "managers", many of whom despise the working union pilot, makes me sick.
It going to be an interesting year with a lot of twists and turns....at the end, i will be 100% something......that is for sure. I hope its 100% IPA.
