I wish we could just skip ahead to the arbitrator ruling now.

Ultimately it will be determined by an arbiter no doubt. My hope is we can move on from that and galvanize to come together and get a top shelf JCBA because that's where we'll all make our $ and QOL.
Looking forward to the Spirit bubbas coming on board. Oh, and no fences. Daddy needs to drive to work in DTW! 😂

Face it, you and I both just want what is best for #1. Until we are merged I support my MEC in fighting for me, and I expect the same of you. As far as the JCBA goes, we are the same group fighting management.
