Question 49-ers

i quit after the previous president 'imposed' a double vote on supporting the 49-ers.Obviously the first result didn't satisfy him or the company.if you're expecting protection from anything as a member...think again!
just what..in the the last 8 years.. has anyone been protected from exactly?
5-4-3? back to back long hauls patterns(we used to get LH trip-5 days off, LH trip 5days off and now it's back to back trips and 8 days off...a real bargain...not!)
Free reserve? .. a real deal
O days after Long Hauls...wonderful
Proferring at 1,000/hr but being paid for 'G' days at 2.5% regardless of trip length....awesome.
A load of hogwash in the ops manual about fatigue protection actual rostering totally disregarding it.
Direct entry crew and DE f/o's being upgraded to captain in the blink of an eye....very nice.
Inundated with calls on days off or immediately after returning from trips to 'ask for those favours'...kidding right?
Tell me please what EXACTLY has the AoA DONE for anyone recently.....except appease the company and throw away all our hard won conditions?
