Present a contract that we deserve and it will pass. That simple.
Not sure I agree either giant. Just because we all want higher pay doesn't mean we're unified. Lack of participation for the surgery (70% I think, can't remember), turn outs for events are poor and when people do turn out some are there to cause issues, guys not wearing the green stuff, etc. You don't need to be loyal to the MEC and NC but showing support for the overall cause is the goal. Too much looking out for oneself. A lot of guys will complain about the pay and bash guys on the available list but will turn around and take a JA.
