You don't have to wonder, just look at how negotiations are going at FedEx.
The 93% you look down on saved you from yourself. While far from perfect, I'm happy we locked in the gains we did get when we did.
I am super grateful it passed too. Yes, I am new and don't have the experience or insight most of you do, but if that contract did not pass things would have likely ended up a lot different.
