Narrative:

We're under a federal mandate to maintain a 77% productivity without flight disruptions. The independence of mechanics has been circumvented. The union cannot promote safety because a judge would consider it a cryptic call to action. Management never talks about safety in the workplace. The workplace is replete with a constant drumbeat of scheduling. The culture at ZZZ is slowly changing to promote scheduling rather than safety.
