I do not care what the reason is. The bottom line is that it is another giveback. If you are willing to have your leg interrupted every time that the rf2 needs a checkride and have the flt that you bid to be the capt on changed to being rf2, instead of being bumped off of the trip with pay, then I guess you should vote for this TA and its give backs.

I went to the source. Had several discussions with the "union". I feel that both the Negotiating and Grievance Committees misled me. They have tried to explain why this capitulation to the company is not a capitulation. They have tried to explain why this give back is not a give back. I was there, have been there through all of this. There explanations are just not credible. The only thing that they didn't do was try and sell me swamp land in Florida. I plan on talking to them again next week. I guess they will try that then.
