Im not trying to convince anyone; people are going to vote how they want no matter what. Why do you view going from a -$30Mill contract to one thats over +72Mill, conceding? And why put out a vote? well I guess thats the way the system works

Sorry, CommutR. That Grazel-reference might have been a little harsh. Re. the conceding part - we might be conceding on our goals for this contract. As strong as we were with our strike action, as much leverage as we had, I was expecting more.

Thank you for a reasoned response, Balder. I was also talking to Plane Ramrod who was complaining about the 150%. He rejected my take on it that came directly from one of the negotiators; so I was hoping he'd ask today. Instead, there are only more complaints. ASK!

Why don't we just gamble and vote "no" and see what happens!! worse case, we strike again!

At least this isn't a gamble. It's a TA with good work rules and better pay. Screw the 150% it'll come back. Just like the GLAMOUR of aviation in the sixties :)

Okay contract aside; anyone have the scoop on Patty Douch getting booted off a flight to DTW last FRI? Capt got an NOI? anyone confirm?

It was covered, they said they wanted to discus it at the road shows. Apparently the new "slick" reserve system was easy enough to explain on the call, but why no time and a half? Nope, come to the road show.

Does anyone here actually think that a union waiting four years to go into a strike posture is acceptable?
Better late than never, but why wait so long?
