This TA is far better than expected. Some poor areas but no where near compared to the gains. Take out your negativivity and view this rationally! I’m voting YES because i read the whole TA, videos, comparison guide. It’s a large pay increase, scope is huge and 401 and scheduling are top notch.

It has become standard because people don't care to or know how to read the legal fine print. But, standard doesn't make it something acceptable. It was once standard NOT to have arbitration agreements, but big corporations have consistently screwed customers and employees.

No one can force you to work somewhere that has binding arbitration. We don't have to agree to a contract that enforces mandatory arbitration. It's only "mandatory" if we agree to it in the first place. This is how the 3A disaster happened in the first place. We need the right to take grievances to court via lawsuit in the event of a violation, not some kangaroo court paid for by BJ.
This TA is far worse than I thought.
