Amen to that. Will we see shiny new pay rates with retro that distract us from concessionary poison pills unknowingly slipped into our adult beverages? …a la triple 23k recovery obligs; 75 hour sick leave verification threshold; even more optimizer friendly coverage ladder; worse DH rules; let’s not even mention scope…

Saw that too. Sounds very encouraging.

Inflation + retro. Even more encouraging.

Delta purchased the optimizer software from Volvo in 2004.

Then it was modified by a Gothenburg Death Metal Band who earned their wrenching skills at IKEA. CS dropped a Detroit lump into it, called it a V8olvo screwed the accelerator to the firewall and yelled "Børk at the Moon."

Don't fall for tricks. ... the HR Department has tried to change the Volvo's image. They wired the left turn signal to blink continuously. But look carefully at the badge. It is still the V8olvo!

I would have thought the optimizer originated somewhere closer to Stellantis.

According to negotiator’s notepad 20-01, the sick leave section is closed and improved.

Holy crap people, can we at least see it before we start talking about how we vote? We sound like we belong in Congress with that kind of talk.

Doesn't mean there isn't some concessions in there already...

Lol right! Save the eeyore, "we'll get'em next time," platitudes for when the TA is actually released.

I was kidding about my automatic “no” vote.

I’m all for saving the animals but what does this TA have to do with a bunch of duck-billed, beaver-tailed, otter-footed, egg-laying aquatic creatures native to Australia?
