There is nothing wrong with holding the union leadership accountable. You have to keep one eye on the company and the other on the union.

Union leadership is held accountable by ballots and voting.

If only there'd been independent websites evaluating the contract.

Maybe next time we can create some, maybe call them hiddenarrows or purple ta

Where is this website? I’ve seen documents from UALPA and DALPA MECs comparing contracts. But I haven’t seen one from the FDX MEC. Was there one published before the TA vote?

I hope those DALPA UALPA comparisons mention PBS.

The websites I referenced were private websites established by an unknown pilot.

They consolidated all of the block letters.
Think purple.ta had Thumbs Up\Thumbs down for each particular section of the TA.

Might or might not be able to pull it up with a search here, but want to say I did a Thumbs Up\Thumbs Down count and it came out pretty darn close to the overall vote rate (eg-60\40 split)

PM has stated that an Opener's comparison is going to be produced, but that's quite a ways off.

Because of...........

The entertainment value of watching the drivers on 385 and 240 text while taking a big ol' sip from a 40 and exit from the far left lane across 4 lanes of traffic...... at 8 o'clock in the morning?

The convenience of having a cop with his lights going at every exit on 240 between Germantown and the AOC to guide your way to work?

The excitement of transiting a 10-mile stretch of highway with an average of 5 road rage shootings per month?

Or the simple fun of sharing the road with some of the worst drivers in the US?

makes driving to work like a box of chocolates......

Should've included the driving to work once or twice a month for a full month's pay, if you're very Senior on Reserve.

Or, mostly driving to work for 150% pay, again-Senior on Reserve
