I am very concerned that some people don't realize that negotiations require give and take on both sides. This will not come down to a situation where the company gives and we take. Reality dictates that we MAY have to give up in one area to get something in another. The goal is to have a better OVERALL contract for everyone, not sticking on one point when we have may have made other gains. This is supposed to be a stepping stone, not a destination. Let's make it a good stepping stone and move on when the time comes.
