What part of FALLING BEHIND INFLATION don’t you get? What part of BLS’s comment about a NB - that’s NARROWBODY NOT NEWBIE- FO being unable to afford a house in these bases do you think is so damn funny? Maybe he and his wife would actually like to have a couple of kids and live with them in base - somewhere with a decent school system.
But yeah, make jokes. We understand. You just don’t GAS.
And by the way, genius. It’s ‘subject’ not ‘submit’.

FYI, we’ve been in negotiations for 2.5 years at SWA. The kompany used Covid as an excuse to not counter section 3 pay rate proposals for that length of time. So you know what SWAPA just did?! They countered themselves and upped the ask 😂
There’s no reason why an NC can’t update and refresh their asks especially when there’s no mediator involved that you have to worry about not p!ss!ing off.

So, if the mediator has to act angry to scare the union into thinking they're going to be "put on ice forever" or some other "blarney" and thereby make the union side more likely to give in, the mediator will do that.
Successful mediators often liberally use blarney (hoomalimali in Hawaiian) as one of their mediation tools. The [NMB] Chairman's statement may well have been a ploy. By inquiring as to the true meaning of such a statement we could well undermine its entire purpose by forcing the [NMB] to admit it was a tactic to spur negotiations.

and LAX, SFO, and the New York bases are better? What an idiotic comment.
