It's stuff like this that creates public disunity within the group that the company negotiators love.
I'm not the biggest fan of our current MEC chairman, mostly because of the way in which LOA 19 was negotiated, but I agree with how they are handling this situation. It's a shame it has unfolded the way it has but I find little fault with Bruce or the union.
I've called my rep and a negotiating committee rep and made my opinion known.

If you want a constructive suggestion, shoot for the highest hourly wage of the 3, 40+ per hour. Also, give the CAs 5K and the FOs not affected by the bonus 2,500 in retention.
I'm joking, but I feel like we've come full circle here.
I'm just as anxious to hear what happens but I'm willing to give it some time, especially since we got a late start.

Or even worse that this drags on for a while.
