I concede the AOA has done some good for their members over the years, though not more good than bad overall. But this is not the time for weakness. Sweetening up a bad deal still lowers the bar. How can you not see this? And dont say they are doing this just to be in a position to negotiate better things later on. You can put a turd on a plate and call it fillet mignon, but in the end, youre still eating sh!t.
I agree also that the infighting must stop. Pprune has been the only outlet for frustrations about this current situation. I wish collectively we could do more to stop the CX machine, but in the end, they will win no matter what. They know, the AOA knows it, we all know it...thats whats so crappy about it.
Nothing will change, management will always win. So for now, im bending over a pinball machine in a dirty bar, skirt hiked up, panties around my ankles, waiting for NR and TT to take turns at me. The best we can hope for is that they have warm hands.
Peace.
