If the LOA doesn't pass, what's the company's next best alternative? Personally, I don't think we'll furlough if we vote it down, but I also don't believe they'll just rollover on profit sharing. I don't think management is facing a binary choice: give up profit sharing or furlough. I'd imagine they have a number of contingency plans, some that don't involve furloughing or giving up profit sharing. What if it just slows our recovery and gives up the 2% raise next year? I'd rather not accept risk based on the opinion of internet experts. Our negotiators signed NDAs and have access to quantitative and qualitative data that we don't. One of them went to Wharton. I'll take that over ten thousand+ posts on BP. I don't know how I'll vote, that depends on the extent of the scope relief, but I don't think profit sharing is the line in the sand for me. I believe it's a tool for management to motivate employees. If they don't want to use it, that's their choice.

What’s your deal man? You’re really fixated on copy for some weird reason. Is this all because he posted a RUMOR of what he was told by SOMEONE ELSE? I guess he didn’t realize that you can only post confirmed, factual information on this forum.

The next thing is, I can see how copy's source could've got it mixed up becuz the first effective date has seniority number in the 1200s junior. So the source trying to recall it from memory is open to those errors. Just move on felt

Regardless of your feelings on the vax/show me your papers, the fact is a lot of people here and abroad will get it, which won’t entirely kill international from its current levels once it becomes “negative test OR vax required.” I’d expect international hampered by covid test requirements to be largely mitigated with a lot of people vaxxed, in the short to medium term. I don’t think we will be at 2019 levels for a while, but we also won’t be at 2020 levels indefinitely either.
See, that’s where they got you. You have that hope that it’s just a few short months away. It’s always just a few short months away. Just hang in there, we’ll bail you out a little bit longer. You don’t get it, do you? It’s never coming back. Ever. It’s going to roll from on strain to the next and the next. You might get a short easing of some restrictions just to give you the illusion of progress, but that will be short lived. They will take everything from you. All the while you will feel hopeful because the government just gave you another bailout. Every bailout is just a nail in the coffin. Every dollar they print to prop up what eventually will unravel and collapse, only then it will be too late.

I gotta run, word out of Fauci today that the vaccine might not be very effective for the strain from South Africa. Oh man, hang tight, for a little longer, only until we develop the next vaccine for this strain. Then we’ll be ok to reopen. Maybe.

Sad to say that most people will find this post as crazy. Except it’s not. Oh well. Not many people will realize until the very end. Until there is nothing left.

Just to be on the same page. You are saying this is the end of the world right?

LOL man, you really had me going for a while thinking you were some whack job conspiracy theorist but you really jumped the shark with this one. Well played troll, but you just outed yourself here.

Oh no, the world will carry on. With only a select few having the ability to freely move about the planet, eat quality food, and generally do whatever they please. The world as we know it, will end for most of us. I assume the transition period will be a little rough.
