I'll tell you what we can ask for. Language in the contract. Not language in letters, not language in meeting minutes, not language in an arbitration hearing -- language in the contract. I'd submit that 10% could be added to the YES vote by leaving the TA as-is but going back and adding agreed upon intent clauses throughout the document.
We have been arguing for weeks about what the TA really says. What does that say about the work done in the authorship of the document?
If you reach an understanding about intent during the negotiation, write an intent paragraph into the contract adjacent to contract clause. History shows that to be the only path to success with FDX. I am no longer interested in voting for what people "think" they agreed to. Those are nothing more than opinions. Trust is a thing of the past here.
