And who cares about getting the same contract in the spring? Its actually better now because we get the pay retro to Jan and none of none of the concessions for almost the whole year.

Not to mention that all the offers from the company up until now had greater concessions in scope and other sections. The worst "the 12" can be blamed for is a couple months at most, and with full retro who cares. And they deserve credit for a better contract than would have happened without them.
