I know you hope salesman can't help yourselves but W O W.

These boards will not get you a contract nor will your speculation...

Rather than speculate on the current status, billboards and/or newspaper ads....why not pick up the phone and ask your local reps, negotiators or informed P2P reps? B6Alpa is a transparent organization, I'd assume the only reason you wouldn't is you're a non-member.

I’m sharing my opinion, the same as you. You have no special lease on the truth.

You haven't been paying attention the past few years. SWAPA used signage during negotiations.

Not that we're getting a contract tomorrow kind of perspective, but I think the last session had a different tone to it, and I think they believe media campaign is having an affect.

ALPA has offered no timeline on the TA nor have they even speculated. This absolutely could still take years or it could get done by end of January. Nobody knows.

Never said they would Supergirl. But why would our union leadership spend the money and turn up the rhetoric if they were "happy" with the progress at the negotiating table?
