Maybe think about this a little harder to understand how your view of what is “realistic” may be hindering our efforts at the negotiating table. If you really do believe your opinion of what is attainable at the table is accurate and is well below your co workers’ estimations, maybe just keep it to yourself on social platforms. Who knows, maybe the realist or even the optimist projection will prevail, win for all.

Come on.......How do you know it is below his co workers estimations? Do you have access to polling data? Maybe it's people whose view of what is attainable is way above their coworkers estimations are hindering negotiations and a future deal.

I am also expecting a $60,000 retro check. 18/5/5/5 starting in 2022 is a slap in the face. It’s time to pay up.

My expectation based on 18% and my own basic, back of the napkin math puts the average retro check north of $90k and counting. Aim higher.
