I'm not sure which is worse, playing the role of our worst enemy, or that of the company's best friend. If not now, when?
The time to negotiate is when the amendable date is reached... If the economy and company is doing great when this date hits hopefully it works in our favor... But if the economy sucks... Who knows. What I do know is we have a TA on the table that isn't stellar but pretty solid for giving up 2 years... I think it's worth a Yes. You decide and vote...opens on the 5th.
