There is a certain pattern in our mind set developing which concerns me....
We were expecting something punishing and are confusing this small relief with less fear.
This is about payment for productivity.
This EBA is worth much, much more to the Q Group than we could ever believe.
Is it worth the $300 back pay? It most certainly is worth much more than a 3% pay increase without any imagined doubt.
Lets enter into some further discussions during the "roadshow" and ask all concerned why we are only worth 3% and listen to their responses and then I can decide why I should not vote "no" at this time.
I'd like to consider myself a very open individual but I will require a little more evidence to sway my opinion on the matter simply "because I was expecting so much worse". That answer is just not a sensible enough answer at this time.
