More AMT's on the way

Well, there goes the pay and benefits that could have been bartered for productivity gains. Textbook maneuver. Add heads, lay off heads after contract ratified 51%-49%.

200-250 Guaranteed YES votes!

I had forgotten about the last 2 contracts' slim passing margins but ... I still think it will take much more than 250 voting 'yes' to sway the outcome to the twu/company's favor. People are pissed - I've heard stalwart TWU supporters questioning the actions of their darling 'union'.

I believe you and I had this conversation before re: how the company will get what it wants; at this point, I feel the people are mad enough that not even the company's pet union can make much of a difference with the standard scare tactics as before. It's going to take something else, hopefully. That's why I continue to think a buyout/earlyout is in the offing but not until at least the first TA has been voted down, possibly the second or third POS TA.

Full restoration to the pre-concession contract will get some consideration, though not necessarily a yes vote from me. Anything else will get a well deserved NO.

I hope your right.

This is nothing but a curve ball at its best. Keep you eye on the ball.

The next curve ball will be Title II. This is the group you really need to keep an eye on. The past two contracts Title II has overwhelmingly voted yes.
