For the middle third L-UAL voters:
The C12 Chair, who was one of three who signed this statement and who was MEC Chair during pivotal moments of the last furlough, did NOTHING for you when you were out on the street. She cozied up to Tilton and left you to rot. Remember that.
For the lower third voters:
Consider the above as you ponder what the future holds for you.

Even voting yes I bet they furlough 2000 on June 1, 2021 because the TA allows that. The only way I don't think that happens is with a faster turn around than most are expecting.

If we vote no, they will furlough 2,850 this year, and most likely another 1,000+ on top of that by June 2021. The company is going to slash pilot cost starting next month. We can either tell them to furlough as many as they need, or collectively buy some time. It’s not a good TA, but it is what we have. Kirby is up against the clock. Congress is going to be obsessed with the open Supreme Court seat and extending the PSP is way on the back burner and the fire is just flickering. When this election is over, the company is going to react accordingly. They will go full speed with the TA, or the furlough plan.

As a pilot due to be furloughed on Oct 1, I will say this is one of the most insulting, inflammatory, and juvenile posts I’ve read on the subject. I am ashamed to be associated with you.

Have you considered the incremental furlough cost beyond 2850? Those additional 1000 come at a significantly higher cost to the Company - every single one of them. It’s not like furloughing FAs. I think there’s a good reason the additional 1000 haven’t seen WARN letters. And all of those will require 3 months advance notice with furlough pay and vacation. That’s a lot money. Why haven’t they sent the letters already if they intend to furlough? What’s it cost to send a letter?
