Absolutely. But how many will read it? From the posts on here about rigs it's obvious that few have even opened up the MTA.
We get burned on this all the time. We voted for a MOU that had a 1-3.25 rig for trips with more days than DPs, only to have the APA give it away.
One sad fact is that the contracts are written in a way that 10 guys could read it and get 10 different interpretations. Probably by design.
I want the theory that the company 100% cannot get HBT in arbitration spelled out in clear terms.
We have a lousy track record with arbitration.
