Best of luck to all negotiating!
And thats probably why we got significant increases in hourly rate, A DC plan, LTD, SCOPE, RIGS, keeping healthcare (which I believe is one of the best plans in the industry) keeping 4 days off etc.
Look, its a Negotiation, you arent going to get everything you want and you sure as hell arent going to go from the lowest paid to the highest in one cycle.
Im not telling anyone how to vote just pointing out some of the positives among the negatives that some are focusing on.
Ive also heard of some lunatics on the Anti-PBS chat say this contract will cost them money. They are completely out of their minds. The only way that would ever be possible is if they violated the CBA numerous times, every month.
