[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 598318, member: 7966"] One thing to keep in mind is this. Union people, your BA included, are basically politicians. As my signature says, "Pay no attention to what people say...observe their actions. What is it that the BA was indicating with his "inflection"? Is his assurance "to get you back to work" mere braggadocio? As my original response was, "You know your personal situation better than anyone else." To clarify that, the real question you have to answer to yourself personally, "Do you take the risk and put 19 years of "investment" on the table? What about your retirement through the Teamsters? Can you take the risk of a cut in pay (presumably)? Principle does not feed the family and is usually shouted out by the people who are not putting it on the line. Make your decision based on your assessment of your situation (loss versus gain) and its long-term effect on you. [/QUOTE]
