Funny thing is…..the loudest loudmouth on this issue isn’t even against the vaccine, supposedly. Just the fact that fetal tissue was involved in the research. Yep…..try to hold everyone’s livelihood hostage because Sky Daddy might get mad about furthering science using tissue that was dead anyways.

It’s really informative that you’re a science believing atheist, but do you have to be such a condescending #@ck to those on here that aren’t? Just who held everyone’s livelihood hostage with a mandatory vaccine that was under emergency use and we were the only major to do it?

You're always going to have at least 20% vote no.

5% will vote no because of "it doesn't get enough, doesn't meet inflation, doesn't do some big overarching reason, you shouldn't vote yes on the first agreement" or similar. You can't pin these people down on any specific reason, or, really, get them admit they didn't read the agreement past the pay rates, and in some cases will just say "well, that's what everyone I've talked to (or read on the internet) is doing".

5% will vote no because of a single specific reason. Retirement, medical freedom, didn't get an extra day off, etc. That single reason may be broad, or very, very specific.

5% will vote no because something in the agreement might change the game they had going on. In every contract, there are dozens of "good deals" that people get worked out for themselves that they've played with great success, and these usually are a result of some very specific situation and interaction with contract language. These are harder to deal with because these folks will give every reason BUT the real one, and generally, they never let on what deal they had going on, so you really can't tell if the new rules mess them up or not. Generally, these folks keep these "deals" very, very tight to themselves and a close number of buddies.

5% will vote no because a blinding hatred of ALPA , the company, the world, the universe or any of the above.

I’m voting no because there’s nothing in this contract guaranteeing I can still wear my leather jacket. And I generally hate everyone. 2.5%?

I’m voting no because cell phone holsters are no longer going to be allowed, sometimes you just have to take a stand.

The reason to vote no is because they didn’t give us a discount on New Balance shoes!

He certainly did. I reckon you prefer to just screw over the uneducated and the impoverished ones because they don't matter, right?

If you use one pair strictly for mall walking they last a lot longer.
