Well we need to band together and have 100%/100%. I realize not everyone will want this to go down this road but given the amount of time for this to even be a slight possibility, they can vote yes and prepare now. Our counterpart spirit was only on strike for what 5 days maybe. If we can’t survive for a week of no pay then there’s bigger problems that person should be looking at.

I recommend anyone in aviation set aside a contingency fund for strike, furlogh, med-event, bankruptcy, etc. It can be a rough ride sometimes.

[QUOTE=Pigpen;3840759]Oh, I'm with you 100%; already cast my vote. I was just saying why I don't think they can close it early. As to the future, I'm prepared to vote against as many bad contract offers as it takes to get a good one; and, I can survive significantly longer than a week in the event of a strike.

I don’t think truer words have been spoken on here.

Vote yes
This vote is important, I’d encourage everyone to vote yes. This vote is less about actually going on strike than it is about showing the company we are ALL demanding a fair contract. This memo management just put out should clearly show you just how little they think of us. Show them what you think of them.

All this rah rah garbage is just background noise. The game is 99.5% stacked in management's favor. There will be no contract until management decides to give us one. Last time it wasn't until we had virtually zero applications on file. I expect much of the same this time around. Lanyards are a nice gesture, the strike vote is a nice gesture, but overall it means nothing to management. If you think the cronies that run this goat rodeo of an airline give 2 ****s about these gestures, you are wasting your time. Contract 2030.
