It is bad because a longer contract means our opportunities to negotiate become less frequent. We are unable to capitalize on the time value of gains.
In other words, we can't give away the farm for pay raises as often. And they have to wait longer to before they try to get back in office on the heels of lost gains. And they aren't needed in the office as much, meaning they actually have to fly.
It is a travesty in the making of epic proportions!
