I was there when it happened, you don't want this kind of thing to happen UNLESS you have it all on your side of the table ..................... easy to say the words, much harder to live by it. We don't have what it takes to conduct a successful strike largely due to our leadership philosophies and the kind of independent contractors that work here and self centered, I repeat, self centered ......................... individuals amongst us.

Huh? Normal times? Look at Dec '07, 16 months ago, prior to PC using the F word for the first time. A few lines were already being bought up to 68 back then, the hi/low for MEM 11CA was 67:03/78:59. How do you get 7-10 below those numbers when the line values had already started decreasing from "normal" by then?! I'd say AT LEAST 10-16 below normal times!
BTW, nice edit to 11, but you're still off!

Nope, PC first used the F word a year earlier, late Dec '07/early Jan '08, which makes my premise correct! 4a2b was invoked a year after PC first used the F word, which was a prelude to all the failed excess bids last year!

The sodomizer is evil. And it will get worse, month by month, as the parameters are tightened with the goal of squeezing more $ out of flight operations. The efficiencies look good to the company, but guys are drooling on themselves out there.
The real question is $$ vs. Safety. Which is more important here?
I'll let someone else answer that one...
