Once again, just like the Age 65 "debate", the issue is dead. 85% of our pilots voted FOR the contract. It was an overwhelming landslide.
Funny that the 15% number of NO votes pretty much coincides with the number of Reserves/Junior Captains who have fallen for the fearmongering posted here and on the Alaska ALPA board.
FURLOUGHS!
DOWNGRADES!
90 HOUR LINES!
EASY VSA!
LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS!
Oh my.
The 85% number represents lineholding Captains and F/Os who evaluated the TA and understood how the new framework would benefit their status and quality of life.
Democracy in action! You gotta love that. Of course, like Republicans, we'll be treated with a lot of whining and gnashing of teeth written in the largest darkest font available from the 15%. And like the anti-Age 65 crowd, it won't change a thing.
Let the finger pointing and name calling begin. That won't change anything either. But, if it makes YOU feel better, go for it. Just understand, 85% of us don't care. I suggest if you don't like the result, run for LEC/MEC Officer or volunteer for the Negotiating Committee.
