Because that's what they've added to get us to vote for it. A 3% raise
now, that would be a minimum expectation for the complete CBA, anyway.
in short, YES. We will be in the same position in 12 months, either way, is how I see it. So taking anything off the table is a good trade for the alternative, which is nothing. I also feel that trading the FDA for something is great and takes away the opportunity for us to screw it up like the postal deal. Leverage works only if you use it properly and to the degree the other side has no other options.
Again, how I feel, personally and in no way reflects the view or opinions of APC Management.
