She should have left her inner schoolmarm at the door.

Well that's all well and good, but she is in control of the process.

The NMB's role is to facilitate a fair agreement between 2 parties. At what point in time did applying pressure to labor through public insults in order to accept a pro-management agreement become part of their mandate? How is this impartial in any way?

Apparently, yelling at the membership and calling them rocket surgeons is also a low percentage play.

Okay, so what does that have to do with anything? We are where we are now and we have to find a new way forward. Or maybe you just want to stir up the pot because you have no skin in the game.

As I said before, we're doomed. Another pilot hater. 😊
