[QUOTE="twoweeled, post: 1440817, member: 27108"] Pretty good contract? I have little issue with your other opinions, and granted, the contract should not be laid at the feet of Ron. No arguments there. But it is exactly this type of thinking that has us going backwards in our healthcare benefits. If comparing yourself to someone doing worse than you, is sufficient to satisfy you, than you will always be able to please yourself - because you will ALWAYS be able to find someone somewhere, who is doing worse than you. ALWAYS! But to be honest with ourselves. [B][U][I]We are either doing "[/I]better, exactly the same, or worse"[I].[/I][/U][/B] That's a fact. There are NO other options. You decide which it is. Because someone else is doing worse than we are, is not enough for me to say, "damn, I guess I'm doing good"! Having to search for another company doing worse than us every contract negotiation, to make us feel good about our downfall - will lead us down a path to the second worse contract ever eventually. 2nd only to the absolute worse. I guess we'll still be able to point at the other absolute worse, and say," we're still better than they are"!! [/QUOTE]
