Pizza's cheaper than beer. D-ALPA should try what management does and talk the Credit Union into paying for it :)

Scoop,
So you take a group that agreed to pass something to the membership, and expose the differences of opinions within? I don't think that's smart. Sink, First of all, I disagree with your premise - a PRO vs. CON paper does not necessarily expose differences within. But going along with your scenario, if the vote is 10-4 (hypothetical) to forward to membership for approval don't you want to hear why the 4 voted no? Conversely the vote can be uananimous to forward, but this does not mean every Rep likes everything about it. I agree the internet and this forum will serve a sort of PRO vs. CON function, but I would prefer an official one via the negotiating committee. While there is some great information on this thread there is also a lot of chaff. Scoop |

Thanks for the responses. Instead of calling it "free" drinks & hors d'oeuvres, it'll make me feel less cheap, to refer to them as "earned" or "already paid for" drinks & hors d'oeuvres! :D
V/R, GJ (still cheap) Beers were included in SAN! :D Scoop |

Scoop Just me guessing, but if there were four "No" votes, I suspect they would send it back to the company to make them yes" votes. It also depends on who the "no" votes are, but that many makes their position significant. |

ACL, That was just hypothetical. But if there are differences of opinion within the MEC or Negotiating committee why shouldn't the Pilot group be made aware of them? But I am getting off point which was - I think a Pro vs. Con paper by those most familiar with ramifications of the TA would be helpful. Scoop |

Scoop Just me, but I assume that if there is a TA, everyone will know that the MEC is meeting to discuss it. If your scenario comes true, I am sure we will be made aware that they are taking it back. We may not know the vote count at that time, but we probably will know the rest. FWIW, a few reps have stated that they will demand a recorded vote on the TA so that all reps are held accountable for their vote. |
