This whole negotiation is a front.
The GC will have to sit through it because any walk away early, will be twisted in the media to bash the pilots for being difficult and spoilt brats. It will be the public reason flights are cancelled or orders delayed. It will also be the reason upgrades will not be accelerated and used as a tool to divide and conqour the group. The company is flogging the business situation while it can.
It's all BS.
Nothing will ever change.
If they don't know what we want by now after HPE then what is the point of this sham of a negotiation.
Utter BS. Is all iican say.
They have already said there is no money for us and further reinforced it with an update on the business situation on the first day of negotiations.
If it looks like it! If it smells like it! then it's sure as S@#?… going to taste like it.... So why would you even put your finger in and have a try.....Jesus.....
