Unfortunately, the company's impending violation will occur in conjunction with the next Section 6 negotiations.

Now we know why the company agreed to (or perhaps insisted on?) a 3-year contract length.

The pattern is well established:
- the company will throw us a couple of bucks to lower the JV percentage.

- DALPA will sell it hard ("time value of money" or whatever slogan they come up with). 60% will panic and vote "yes."

- A few months later, it will become apparent that in addition to ceding scope, we also ****ed away a significant amount of QOL.

- Rinse, wash, and repeat in a few more years.
