Now if only oil was high we could show fuel savings from the extra 20 lbs of charts each of us is carrying.
As previously mentioned in contract negotiations we may need to settle for industry average, which this seems to look like, but we can make up for this concession with higher pay or benefits elsewhere.
I'll go ahead and throw this a no vote too. I'll also send up the channels that the two issues should be separated.
