I don’t think anyone has been hung out to dry. We knew we would loose staff travel, we knew we would loose pay. The amount lost I agree needs to be fought. I assumed it would be a days pay at the daily rate for the month.

I don’t think a strike again will work. Every FO says they can’t afford to strike again with how much they lost.

Hopefully nobody is hung out to dry.
with that mentality, how can you ever get what you want? Withholding your skilled labor is the only leverage you have. It’s a game of chicken and you’re ready to cave in already?
