I see a lot of mention about pay, retirement, and no concessions but what about QOL and work rules? Does anyone know if QOL is being addressed in the negotiations? The “Buyer’s Remorse” post has me thinking and comparing.

This exact question was asked at the MEM hub turn meeting last week. There were no QOL concessions. But those that weren't there will probably stick to their rumors from their "sources."

If the TA’d areas in question are so great and without any concession, why doesn’t the MEC just release the language?

Maybe we should see what the trading looks like before we place judgement. In the meantime I'll just enjoy time with my family and do the things that my union asks of me.

If that's the way you want to look at it... Everyone hates Sub... If the OTP goes from 125% to 400% would a "Choice", "Concession"... Whatever you want to call it be acceptable to you? If not 400%, then 1000%? 6000%?

Having been through negotiations before, that's pretty standard... Imagine if everytime we got something nice out of negotiations they said, "WOW... We wanted to tell all of you that we just got an industry leading retirement plan!" How do you think the pilots would act in that scenario? Probably not in a manner that benefits our stated goals.
