Default TA Must have passed early!

I guess the company has already decided the TA will pass. Look at your Nov calendar!

Yes, but it takes time for all that programming! Isn't that what we were told in the past?

It's obvious the company wants this deal, for 6-10 years. The gained efficiencies are a big win for the corporation. Why couldn't they have improved the VTO process with actual, available trips to be viewable for Secondary Lines, instead of guys/gals bidding on trips that are already assigned? Why did the company not improve the overall VTO processing during the last 4+ years? No need. QOL does not matter. It's about the efficiency and the optimizing. This TA gives them more of that. Therefore, they asked for 6 years.

They've had what 25 years, to improve the VTO process outside of Section 6 negotiations?

Look again. All your days off were filled in with RA days.

LOL, that's actually exactly what I was expecting when MaxKts posted his OP.

They're all full of wonderfully fresh nutritious fuel to keep us going through the night.

Do you like the blue, green or purple best?
