Unacceptable!
Regardless of the rumors and whatever backstories surround this, setting a resignation date over 4 months from now is simply unacceptable!
We cannot have ineffectual, lame duck leaders during negotiations!!! I hope our MEC reps realize this only weakens our bargaining positions and will act swiftly to bring in new leadership as soon as possible. We don't have 4+ months for a farewell tour and a rudderless ship.
And I'm sure the guys don't want to miss the mother of all peaks on the line this year. What a coincidence that their resignation date falls after peak....say it ain't so!

First, I appreciate their efforts on our behalf and the sacrifices they’ve made over their term of office.
Second, the Negotiating Committee actually works for the MEC, not for the Officers. The MEC is the Governing body and sets the tone.
Third, the 3 months allows for a smoother exit and a more complete handover.
Last, they could have said “FU”- we quit now and went to the line for peak to make way more money than they are now.
perhaps it’s the deuchbaggery of the comments here and other social media heroes that pushed them over the edge.

Yes, Yes, thank you for serving....but they were paid handsomely.

Ahhh, the tone. I wonder how that manifests itself.

The 3 months? How do you calculate that? It's not yet mid-August, then September, October, November and December plus the first two days of January. That's nearly 5 months (4 months, 23 days) by my count, not 3. And besides, "handover" doesn't start until after an election....when will that take place? I'm hoping very soon.
Last, they could have said “FU”- we quit now and went to the line for peak to make way more money than they are now.
Nothing is stopping them from actually flying right now....nor over Christmas....if they truly wanted to.

Agree to disagree.
