It used to start at $1.5 billion in the previous contract.

It will be interesting to see how much we gave back with that item.
It will be REALLY interesting in 2013 when the 15% drops to 10%.
That little detail could cancel out our entire 4,8,3,3 "raise".

It's OK though. We brilliantly negotiated to work more hours each month to make up the loss.
True but the new TA profit sharing adjustments, for us, don't kick in until a year from Jan 13. We're still under the old arrangement. That is, our previous percentages apply this coming January. The TA PS kicks in Jan of 2014.
