One good thing is, if we were not being misled by the announcement of the proposed tentatively agreed to Southern parity to Atlas CBA is that if we get stuck in an arbitration, they won't be able to tether us to the lower CBA as the situation is now if we go into arbitration. Of course, the Southern guys get a bigger paycheck faster.

I'm reserving my optimism until I see what is in the agreement. Could be some hidden bombs in it. Southern will have to vote on it.
