How do you all think these rates (3rd from the bottom of the majors) will measure up with the rest of the industry in 2025, after we haven’t gotten a raise in years because management is once again dragging their feet in another negotiation?
If you mean we gave up our quality of life because we gave up transition conflicts and reserve drops, then yes you are correct. I don’t use either so I see a huge increase in QOL based on: Ltd, scope, pay, rigs, retirement, no reserve drops (yes you read that right.. no reserve drops means line holders will have more flexibility). Transition was on the chopping block in 2010 when the company figured out they had screwed up. Reserve drops was on the chopping block after the May irop. That one sucks for some.
PBS is still to be determined, so we don’t k ow how that will affect things. Could be good, bad, or neutral.
And we are by no means bringing down the industry. Technically we did set the new floor tho.
