Next time someone complains about how low RJ FO's are paid, you have no one to blame but yourself.
Im VERY glad you dont work for RAH. Im one of those junior guys that would get a raise and im completely against it. Agreeing to this raise would take all leverage away from the nc. It would essentially stop negotiations as this is the company's only motivation at the moment. Im way more interested in a new contract with cx pay, rigs, reserve rules, min day, etc. A few extra dollars does not compare to the raise we'd get with soft pay on a new contract. Thinking this is a nice gesture by the company is naive at best. Ill make a little extra money in the short term, but ill lose a whole lot more long term.
