They will NEVER agree to a 3% continuation clause. Never ever. The way they pay for that 3% at contract time is by give backs in other areas, e.g.; Over 8 in 24, SIG side letter, training and R days, sick leave and R days, SUB policy, so on and so forth. We will always get a 3% raise after giving up 3-5% in efficiency gains.

We did get sleep rooms for nothing.
