Fellow Pilots: Please don't give CX management the satisfaction of seeing us turn against ourselves. There was a MAJORITY vote cast to reject the TA. This majority consists of pilots from all levels of the seniority list. It was rejected because it was INADEQUATE. If the company choose to show their true, narcissistic colors, then accept that they are at least doing you the favour of allowing you to make a career choice based on truth, and not fantasy. There would be NO career here under the TA. That is why the company was desperate to get it through. Now, instead of taking the high road and reengaging in negotiations to fix the areas that were not acceptable, they choose to dump on the very pilot group who probably mostly voted yes, and who are the most in need of improvements. Just take a moment to reflect on what that says about the 'sincerity' and morals of our management. We MUST stick together and press home with our unity and resolve. They ARE on their back foot, and this is their immature, juvenile and venal response. Don't let them split us now, we have too much invested in the past 19 months to give up now. THEY are the desperate ones, not us. Regardless, keep your integrity, honour and ethics intact. There ARE other airlines in the world, and the fact is that most of us would be better off being at them (time to command/housing/pay/bonus's at the M3 as example). Let this play out, but don't assist the enemy.
