Default Well ALPA...One month until amendable date.

Not much communication lately. I hope things are progressing behind the scenes.

Latest MEC update said they haven't opened up the most contentious sections yet.

They aren't going to hit the target. We will be lucky to get a deal by summer.

Shouldn't the thread title read "Well Delta.... one month untill the amendable date". It's not alpa's fault the company isn't willing to pay us what we are worth.

What target? Let’s not start creating artificial
Timelines that only our side is beholden too and let’s actually get a deal commensurate with our worth, no matter how long it takes.

He's the one who set the target as the amendable date.

Are you kidding me?!?! Yes there is. Every year we don't have a deal, inflation eats away at our buying power. At what point will you start caring? 2 years, 3 years, 5 years?

I think the point isn't about waiting multiple years. I would MUCH rather go a little slow and get the right deal than hurry into another TA1.

Something by roughly Summer will almost certainly come with Retro (yes, a small amount of time value of money, but well worth it to fix the QOL items that are sorely in need).

I'm also not in a rush - IF it means we get the deal we deserve. Is anybody really shocked the company seems to be dragging it's feet on meaningful sections??? The long game is always a smarter play.
