I'm still waiting for proof that those phone calls were to actual Spirit pilots, and not to Riddle Interns reading off of a cue card in exchange for a 50% off Sportys Pilot Shop coupon.

Hey guys EdForceOne is right. We need to lay low and focus on the end game. I think he has a great point and I seriously doubt this "mistake" was unintentional. Lets not fall for these ploys like Spirit. Fortunately we get to learn from their mistakes. We are on a roll and the ball is working its way into our court.
Thanks EdForceOne for paying attention!!

I actually read it as quite promising. Sure it shows that the company is doing absolutely nothing in terms of negotiating with us, and no it doesn't look like we will get anything negotiated in the next two week session.
But is that bad? I think its exactly as expected. The company will either push this to the 11th hour or actually allow us to strike. We've communicated our willingness to do so, we've done our jobs...it is the company which is painting itself in bad light and simply giving us more ammo and the NMB less reason not to release us sooner than later.
1.5% for LOA 67...AFTER the arbitrator told them to negotiate...yeah the NMB will love that.

A contract is not around the corner by any means, but I'm hard pressed to believe the NMB is going to allow future negotiations given their current angst.

Not an F9 pilot, just wanted to say you guys are doing a great job. The way I see it and it seems many of you feel the same way is management knows they're on the losing end here and trying to bait someone into an emotional response. You guys are gonna win this one.
