Keep saying no and they will move along and keep working with the carriers that have that agreement. Unfortunately that is reality and at some point you have to accept it.
The "caps" are only in place at PSA, who just voted those concessions in, and Republic who just voted down their last poor offer from management(and is having staffing issues). If we would all stop taking concessions, management would have no choice but to finally be fair and actually offer us something that didn't continue to move the "profession" backwards.
