So by your logic your only voting yes to protect a tiny bit of back pay over increasing your future earnings and quality of life.
No, of course not. That would suggest the only reason I would vote yes is because I want a decent pay packet in August. My yes reasons are a bit more involved than just that.
I don't think we would achieve much more by agreeing strike action.
I do think we've got a better deal than the first time round.
And yes, while I'm not completely and utterley delighted with every aspect of the SA, I am happier with it than our current one, and I think I will see an improvement in quality of life.
Would I want more? Of course.
But I'm satisfied that after 18 months of negotiations this is where we've reached.
I'm happy to see this deal go through. Then after some R&R back to the round table to start the next set of negotiations.
