Is "we" your personal speculation on the situation, and you don't hold any official position of authority in the matter?

Just asking, because the world is full of possibilities and the official process for a new CBA has just begun.
No inside intel required. I don't think an NMB proffer of arbitration has ever been accepted by either side...ever. Possible? yes. Rejecting the PoA is usually the last step in getting released, so look for that around mid 2020. Might as well tune out 'til about Q4 2019, lest you go mad...

I agree with the "not my job? not my problem!" statement. I really hope they do offer us a decent TA soon, but I'm surely not going to be very motivated to go above and beyond for them if the process drags on very long. I will do my job as I'm supposed to, but nothing more until we see a deal. I certainly don't want to enable them in their feet-dragging process.

Based on information from those actually negotiating the contract, they feel it will be a matter of months before we get a TA, not years. So I feel and hope you're wrong

Are these the same clowns that were "optimistic" we'd have a TA by the amendable date? Same clowns that threatened to quit last time if we voted no? Same clowns that said "this place will never IPO"?

Need more? Got plenty.

I'm willing to let the NC do their stuff without constant harassment or negativity. I understand this is their second go around with contract negotiations here, it better be stellar. I'm cautiously optimistic, I gotta say though, just the podcasts from Bendo and Ackerman aren't filling me with brimming confidence. It's a lot of, "negotiations are ongoing and there's still a long way to go"

Payday Hotline- since when does our R&I committee act as the companies publisher of unilateral contract concessions? Gonnsen and Wheat advise that the company has allowed UHC to now evalate and deny medications and medical treatment without regard for our doctor's consult.

That is a blatant diminishing of benefits and a violation of our contract. How the hell can these two stupid bastaards act passively this and think they can just 'inform' us?

They need to follow John Prosac into the ALPA round file.

Read the email again, they've filed a grievance. They're informing you of the changes the company made, without the unions okay. At the bottom of the email, they're specifically asking those who have been affected to email. What the hell do you what them to do, go in to Mirimar guns blazing, taking hostages? Settle down cowboy.
