I was just curious, because he was making a lot of noise about how if this contract didn't bring him restoration, or didn't live up to his expectations that he would be leaving for SWA... I'm just asking if he still wants to leave...

I think you meant to say: "We'll be able to get even more next time since we already got a solid improvement this time."


T was merely pointing out that the current PWA will be opened in April of 2015, and with almost 20% higher rates, better work rules and rigs, more pay for vac/trng.

It is great to get all that upfront instead of waiting for 2-3 years and hoping for a retro check, and then being able to pile even more value into the PWA rather than just wrapping up the first deal.


That blurb by Zack's was just a piece of analyst garbage anyway, mixing lots of different info but not saying anything useful or accurate... Gotta do something to justify the boss keeping them on payroll.

Hey that brings up an interesting point - what becomes of the DPA now that we have a new contract? Are they still lurking in the shadows, soliciting donations? Will they re-emerge in 2015 with new bag tags?
Not trying to stir up issues over this, but where do they go from here?

Call it what you want, but fact is that this agreement is amendable in 2015.

And I prefer "We'll get MORE next time"... but whatever makes you happy.
