I also wouldn't give two sh*ts if you're paid in peanuts or soybeans. My problem is that pattern bargaining affects us all, and you are agreeing to:

1) Take a pay cut instead of getting a pay raise given the inflation rates.

2) You're promoting the company dragging their feet in future negotiations by not insisting on full retro. In fact, you're financially rewarding them for dragging their feet.

And in doing all that, especially in this pilot market, you're making our NC's job of securing an industry-leading contract that much tougher.

You're worth more... now if you could only actually believe it, everyone would be better off.
