So are we getting a pay raise and an extra week of vacation?
I'd say these are both a given in our upcoming contract negotiations... Meaning they cost ABSOLUTELY NO BARGAINING LEVERAGE.

So, if DALPA tries to spin them as a win, it is a demonstration of DALPA's irrelevance since they were GIVEN to non-contract employees. Don't go there DALPA.
