At a fundamental level what is the Time Value of (your) Money? Please run the numbers in your own personalized scenario…What kind of raise two years from now would be required if this TA were to be rejected in order to offset the present value of the raise, signing bonus, and compounding interest on the compensation package as it now stands? Each of us has to remove emotion from the equation and decide for themselves what is best for their own future.

I have been struggling to understand how so many on the MEC voted to send this to us. What I am left with is that this is the best that they felt they could do….Regardless of the outcome I appreciate their efforts on our behalf.
I don't buy the "TVM and "the NC will all be fired" unless we vote YES argument. Basically its another way of saying our votes don't really count because anything other than YES is catastrophic. That sounds alot like China. Even the communists get a vote, although as the argument goes, voting No is not an option.
