Realistically what would the outcome look like for escaping it? The fact is, the company showed they were willing to pay $100+m to cover predictable staffing and scheduling/tech shortages, and by all indications want to stay pretty close to that redline. People I talk to keep acting like the contract will fix the 23m7 "problem", but obviously we're not giving that cost away. It needs some ironing out, like how and where the 3x/4x pay is awarded, but that level of surge pricing for emergency coverage is not going away in any contract that has chance to make it to the table. The company will either have to hire themselves out of it, or keep running hot (but under a mutually beneficial smoother system). There's not really a third option where they just escape it and cheaply run operations understaffed (despite their best efforts).
