I have an idea. We should give all of this leverage away for a 3% raise that we would eventually get anyway.
Brilliant! Where do I sign.

Uh, I'm fairly certain that was exactly the leverage that afforded the NC the opportunity to have a TA presented to the MEC. But what the heck why even read it?
Oh and even if you like it you don't get to sign the contract, our representatives and the companies reps sign it, we just get to vote for it.
