No cannot pattern bargain off of agreements that don't exist yet but you can off of what's out there currently. It's called raising the bar not coming up half way to it. You go for industry leading now because hopefully another group will pattern off of you and bring up the bar again. You settle for middle of the pack today you will be at the bottom again tomorrow instead of the middle which is where you would be if you were at the top today. Let's stop riding everyone coat tails hoping to be 5th best and instead try being leaders for once.

They believed they would have a contract last spring when they reduced amendable sections down to four. According to them we are in overtime.

I think the "material gap" statement in the last NC update illustrates that pay is still very much up for negotiation. Maybe a preliminary pay scale was TA'd but has since been reopened due to feedback from our pilot group. The NC knows the rates, we don't. But they do know our overall mood with how we should be compensated and are responding accordingly. It's better for them to take the required time to get a TA that can be ratified vs one that will swiftly be shot down.
