During the past TA the contract comparison left out many items that we should be aiming for. There are some areas of our contract we are completely lacking in work rules. To be the "best contract" out there, there are many little things we are missing or lagging on. There are a few items out of the UAL contract (outside of payrates) that we are behind on.
