we gave up our bidding timeline which took negotiating capital during section 6 for the PBS LOA. It’s temporary but it’s worth about $1200/mo to each of us based on the precedent set this past April. That’s a private school non virtual education for one child until next summer so it was a concession.
The agreement was fair and I’m extremely happy we could make it happen but saying we gave up nothing devalues the work done and every line of the contract spirit made us fight for.
Again, glad to see the team effort put forth by the company here. First time in my career I’ve seen this level of cooperation.
