4hrs x 124 =496 per day
Spirit
5 hrs x 78= 390 per day
I still haven't heard a valid reason to sign this loa. We are 6 months from an amendable contract, we get very little from this deal and give the company a huge gain. It doesn't make sense to me.
I don't understand this reasoning. Make the gains where you can. Are you seriously suggesting that we make up for the deficiencies in our contract with a distance learning agreement?
Lock in the distance learning agreement now, handle the pay rates during contract negotiations.
