What will it Take?
Okay, the voting is over and the TA is now our PWA. I ask this question in all seriousness. I'm not trying to flamebait anyone. My question is for the no voters. "What needs to happen within the duration of this new contract for you to possibly say........maybe the yes voters were right?" Is there a number the seniority list needs to grow to? Is there a average monthly reserve hours flown that we would need to be below? Or is there nothing that can happen...
I'm just wondering what it will take happening over the next 3 years to maybe change your minds......

As far as I'm concerned, as long as one did their due diligence with the TA, people could come to different conclusions. There was no right or wrong vote as far as I'm concerned. I'm just curious what it would take happening in the next couple of years to say "maybe it turned out Ok." Like I said, I'm just curious.
