"The pay bands would be corrected during the next contract."
This statement is a joke, right?
Here's another thing I know:
Nothing is "corrected" in the next contract. Why? Because each contract brings a challenge of its on and to think "pay-banding" will be "corrected" is one of the most ignorant things one could say, let alone think.
So if you want and like "pay-banding" then its OK, if not don't vote for it.
You guys make things so hard, sometimes.
