Nobody really has a good reason to vote YES.
Guys who want to stay... you have something worth fighting for.
Guys who will go at the first opportunity... you have nothing to lose.
Dont believe that spin-doctor c
p about our EBA dragging the company down. The EXISTING EBA is dragging the company down if anything, it certainly did the shareprice, staff & market goodwill, network... etc
And his little spin in FF about laying off flightcrew. Well you're still pumping guys through ground schools arent you, and still cancelling (profitable) flights due no Captain arent you. Thats just a shot across the bow to make the weaker ones think they'll be out of a job if we dont all be good boys & girls and cop what we're offered and be thankful for it.
And to say "well its better than nothing" well maybe you are right. But that also applies to the sweatshop worker on 5c/day.
Generation Y pilots (there's more of them around in rex thanks to the shortage) also need to think about their next few decades in flying as a career and be involved in EBA's, AFAP etc instead of waiting for it to be done for you by increasingly tired boomers & X'ers. Infact you could apply an often used quote to describe Gen Y... "
I want it (a better EBA) and I want it NOW"
Vote no. Vote no. Vote
no
