1) When you've been here about 2 minuets and couldn't even vote you sure talk a lot and 2) When even ALIGANT management put out higher payrates than us and their negotiating committee actually had the balls to tell them no you bet your ass I can call each and every yes voter a happy content low tier pilot.

And yet, here we are…. I pray the merger closes, and we can kick Ted and Bendo, and all the like to the curb! If it doesn’t, we’re ****ed on sooooo many levels….
Man, this “leverage” you speak of, clearly isn’t leverage. Otherwise you’d already have gotten what you want. They (management) don’t care and never will. The “we gave something up” mentality has been debunked. Not a single pilot at NK, goes home at the end of the day, looking down at his cracked dirty hands and food stamp application and says, “thanks to this TA - my day is now harder”.
Because HE literally gave nothing up. If your day is harder and you’re paid less as a direct result of giving up so called leverage, I don’t know what to tell you.

In 2017 we were a lot further from DL than we are now.

No, I think after 25 years I have a pretty good grasp. In 25 years NK has not been close to any legacy contract, at least as far as pay goes. Not expecting that to change isn't defeatist, it's being a realist. Voting the TA down would just have delayed it more than we could recoup, and that is assuming we would get more. I don't believe it's worth the wait. You are free to find that defeatist, but you are a minority.
