There are other forms of "gains" besides hourly rates.
Everyone else is focused on the rates and has had the mantra C2004 plus inflation. This contract with the pay rate increase plus profit sharing based on projected profits for 2017 gives us that.
Plus with the projected pay rates there is downside protection. This contract has improvements and concessions in other areas which are being debated.
It's about the money as well as QOL.
