I'm with you, I can't imagine that they'd be able to change our pay raise date, since we were hired under a different contract and the pay raise expectations were set at that time. I'm guessing that this would be used solely for meshing the constructive notice hires together. Problem is, I don't think they could rearrange the list on either side independently, ie an LUS guy junior to me now becomes senior based on this change. But what do I know...
