Whatever we 'get'.... has long been bought and paid for 10x over. That is where your perspective should begin and end.

The only issue in front of this group going forward will be to determine if we are/have received equitable value in the exchange.

Management could care less about colorful accessories and how many wear them. What they do care about is the bottom line.

No one has yet to explain why mgt will just write a big fat check without a fight. Why are we wearing the stupid lanyards? Why are we picketing? They are dying to write us the big check? I don't see that. We will get less than we deserve because most won't lift a finger. That's a fact in pilot labor deals. Look to SWA. We are lucky that guy isn't running Delta. Luck. Not our talents as pilots. Luck.

PD has yet to show one singular example of completely one-sided Section 6 negotiations.

Uncle.

Can't wait to see the big TA with stuff that's not even in the re-opener. It's gonna be great...cuz we deserve it.

What does this mean? Do you think they're spoiling for a fight?

Purple is very informed. If he is getting intel that this may be short of our expectations, he's probably correct.

Nothing we do right now is going to convince mgmt we are any more than 2/3rds unified.

If another unsatisfactory product is put in front of us...... the most powerful statement would begin with demonstrating we are 90+% unified.
