Yep, traded away in 2003 for the promise of expansion. I was in a road show in DTW when a senior guy tried to explain to the reps that the language amounted to trip averaging, and the official explanation was given that it was better than what we had.

I'm surprised that anyone still believes that we have calender day min pay. It's been gone a long time.

FWIW, my NO vote was specifically related to trip averaging - duty period guarantee vs daily guarantee. A smarter than myself friend ran the numbers back then and came up with an 18% loss due to this trip average deal.

Now we need to get together, stop bi678tching about little stuff like uniforms and work on making this average bovine scat go away in three years.
