There is a way to fix slope, rates in general, etc. It's in negotiations. If you don't like the way it's going, try to change the direction. 26% of us tried last time to stop the B scale. We were unsuccessful. I was pretty loud about changing the NC BEFORE the last round of failed negotiations only to be met with being labelled a pessimist. Forget that the NC (2/3 at least) threatened to quit if we voted NO. Now I have to listen to you whine about how my seniority block is putting the wood to yours. Redirect your anger somewhere helpful to your cause or Sierra Tango Fox Uniform.
