It was your hero, the savior of all, the White Knight, Captain JG that negotiated that section (with the exception of the LPT part under data collection). Please tell your handlers that this is misplaced outrage. Maybe Cutler should pay attention more.

I'm trying to get the timeline right, here, so JG negotiated and THEN MEC replaced JG, but still approved the concession? Or what?
Because I'm remembering that JG was thrown out well previously to the 4.a.2.c concession, and then AB claimed in a email that he was able to get this agreement with the company with concurrence with the MEC Chair.
Or, did JG negotiate this, and the MEC fired him for not negotiating? It kind of all doesn't matter, but the timeline is getting skewed a bit here.
Who owns it. Certainly the Union was broadcasting SAM manipulation. I doubt they were lying. I bet they had plenty of data.

This is coming up more and more. The anti-NC coalition is arguing for anything contrarian that comes out in Negotiating updates. They're also looking for things that are TA'd and arguing JG would have done better, when the hypocrisy is JG actually negotiated that and TA'd it a year and a half ago. See, thats the point, this has been going on so long no one knows what they stand for anymore. Its absolutely ridiculous. This is where I don't understand how the NMB doesn't step in and say this is going to end today. We'll walk ouit with a deal.

I'm not sure how long PM has left here, but if he has endorsed it, that is a clear warning sign, just like the red lights at the hold short.
Perhaps he is still trying to get a management job? I don't know him, but it would not surprise me.
We seem to have a history of union leaders transitioning to management, almost like they have been working for them the entire time.

Once that was complete, then I could take my time getting Power of Attorney, a temporary restraining order, and removing them from my will while I look for a safe place to have them institutionalized.
I have known several 30+ year employees here (non-pilot) each of whom are knowledgeable, hard-working, reliable employees. All of them used to at least like their job. Every one of them now hates this operation and has a new story about how their QOL is being further degraded by management every time I see them.
