Tell that to everyone that now has 6000 TPIC because of 9/11 and the recession.

What about Awis that just resisted concessions?

Exactly, a better contract and more money will be great. But if we "stand up for what we deserve" we will loose. Case in point Envoy. We are just the *****s out there making money for the pimps and if we become to expensive than the pimps will just find a cheaper *****. Some people need to get out of the mind set like this is mainline or something.

Could we at least use a more self-respecting analogy? Come on.

There's what we deserve and what the market says we deserve. Now, that being said, TSA Flight Attendants were offered a nickle raise during their first round of negotiations. So, you're saying that management is being generous?

If you are at the bottom of the list in terms of contracts, I believe you should absolutely do your best to argue for industry average. There isn't a mediator in this world who would look at you with stupid eyes if you just wanted to "be like everyone else." That's not being ridiculous at all.

And that, ladies and gents, is the best free advice you're ever gonna get here. Get in, get tpic, and get out. They can not replace you.

Exactly.

First of all I am not a "Yes" vote. But, if the TA doesn't pass how much money is left on the table until it goes to a mediator and for how long? Months? Years?

So now Mesa is offering us a CONCESSIONARY contract???????

Go away bro, your f-king annoying. Worry about TSA not Mesa.

Your that kid in class who never stops adding his little tidbits that no one cares about. I wish I could throw paper balls at you.

Actually, I was that kid in class. Ground school, anyway.

Thanks Foxnews, for taking everything I said out of context.

People do care about what I'm saying or they wouldn't respond. You can throw whatever you like at me, but not only am I right, but I couldn't care less about your opinion. Do me a favor, keep using played out elementary school analogies. It's fun when people talk at me like a child.
