There should be no junior man calls because they decided to use up the reserves to save money, then got screwed up by unforeseen events. That's what the reserves are for....
There's the way things should be, and there's the way things are. And things are the way they are because of our ****e contract. That's my legal opinion, bona fide. I'd love to negotiate the next one for the group but I plan to be moved on, or possibly retired, by then.
