Think what you want this place (our pilots) are ruled by fear and you lead the charge. Fear ruled on our current contract and it will be for a long time. Good luck. I really don't care how you voted I just get tired of listening to people like you, I was hoping you were not legacy United, but oh well.

You can keep going with the insults, not doing any good. I've said it before but there is no doubt that a yes vote is a vote to the company that the current contract is ok and the pilot group is willing to continue accepting their implementation of that contract. You may think it'll only be a couple of months for a contract but it will likely take 2 years if we go along with the TA extension.
I won't rehash the JH comments but let's see where he ends up. It's possible he ends up shamed with the likes of PW, JP and BS for questionable behavior associated with the company. Give it time. It's become apparent he and others used the LOA 25 guys.
I'm also guessing that many yes voters expect some kind of accolades for voting to get rid of the LOA 25 and making them whole. Point is the cost of making them whole as a condition to start TA negotiations is nothing compared to the cost of the TA to the company and should have be done from the start. What's even worse is the trivial way many have talked on this forum about getting new pools, buy expensive cars and such while many of the LOA 25 guys are just starting financial recovery. Sad state for United Pilots.

I live in Denver. Do you really think I'm gonna buy a pool? LOL. It was a joke that started with PS speculation. Clark Griswold? Christmas Bonus?? nevermind.

I keep hearing the "fear" moniker thrown around. That's a bully tactic to try to get people to vote down something you don't want. Make them feel like a p%^ssy for voting yes. But you're wrong. It's not about fear. It's merely about a calculation of risk/reward. That's like saying that Captains add gas out of "fear". No. They do the math and decide that it make prudent sense to add fuel in certain circumstances rather than risk getting to their destination without enough to hold for "x".

I'm sure you have fought more than your share of battles here at United, and I will respect that until my dying breath. And I'm not being sarcastic.

I think you miss my point, I really don't care how you vote on this extension. What I don't like is your attitude, coming on here every couple hours and going on and on about it. I really don't bother commenting on here that much anymore, but I was sick of your comments. Vote how you like and then let it go. As far as the last contract, fear was evident by many.
