Try again ace. While we line pukes will never see the survey results, our reps and Donutelli have. Both our reps and Donutelli have publicly stated that the pilot survey was clear in that they said do NOT touch profit sharing.

Interesting that you're still here working as hard as you can to make the case for giving away profit sharing.

I'm not enthused about a PS change just for the sake of changing, but will entertain the concept if my other standards are met first.
You're not only enthused about it, you're working as hard as you can to make the case for it. It's almost all you've talked about in your 10 posts since you joined 3 days ago.

Working at an increased pace and rushing are distinctly different. I believe the pace has been intense, but not rushed. We will know it was rushed when/if we see a result that is substandard. Until then it is merely fear-mongering.
Interesting how we've gone from Donutelli's "World's Greatest Contract" to this operative describing a "suitable" contract. What a surprise.
