That's a great question that was brought up at our last picketting event to a member on the negotiating team. he said we dont want a target on our back and don't want uncle phil and co. to turn around and file for bankruptcy negating this contract we have spent 5 years trying to get. i agree we are only going to be back of the pack again 5 years down the road if we are only shooting for industry average, but i'm not on the comittee so I don't really understand their rationale....
