All we can do is keep moving forward one day at a time. It sucks in the moment but if we aren’t tripping over ourselves for some subpar contract for a quick money grab then we might have a chance. But then again there’s some selfish people here that have literally told me if the contract pays them out they are taking the first offer because they can’t wait forever to play catch up. Soooo….. let’s make sure we are all educated because this isn’t a let’s redo this in a year or two. Normal contracts usually last 7-10 years before a new one is implemented.
