I feel for you pilot guys. It's a pity that it passed.
Things I liked were some of the RR rules (3.9 credit for 8 hours, 4.9 for 10 hours and 5.9 for 12 hours) since that would stop the 20 RR shifts per month around here.
What pisses me off the most is that now other management is going to plop our contract on the table in their negotiations. Pattern bargaining my ass!

Already happening. From the negotiators over here, they were looking at higher than ASA rates as a reality before this TA got passed. Now, we're hoping for ASA rates.
Good news is that I did get a rundown on some of the PBS stuff that was more or less agreed upon for us. COMPLETE overhaul of the reserve and removed for OE system. Some other goodies tossed out there, too.
People that applied, interviewed, and accepted employment at Mesa knew beforehand that the pay sucked, the contract blew, terrible working conditions, ect.
How does the passing of this TA surprise anyone?
C'mon negotiators.... stand your ground. If the company wants us to be like Mesa in contract we can be like Mesa in every facet of our line operations.... just look at the Freedom PoS's. Mesa is a laughing stock to passengers. Just look at the 2000/2001/2002 stickers for "years best regional".... still pasted on .... just barely but peeling off.
I'm going to make stickers "The Mesa 400" in the same style as 300 the movie.
