I'm a doooosh sometimes...even when I don't mean to be.
The company has no problem taking away pay rates when times get tough. I'm not interested in helping them do that by devaluing PS and also making it a pay rate.
The beauty of PS is that it works in good and bad times...in bad times, it has no value so it stays in the contract. In good times it pays in addition to rates.
My seat pays $35-40/hr less that it paid in 2004 un corrected for inflation. BTW, that is up significantly from its low.
