Just like the ready reserve rules don't affect me, but I still would like to see them better for the new people because why pull the ladder up after ourselves?
And even if you say "oh well it's a concession", if it helps us staff, it's a WIN. Right now anything we can do to staff improves my QOL... no raised floor, more days off, maybe even green days again to drop those unproductive turns, no attempts to jr man me... I will happily let them pay a $25k signing bonus and give me nothing if it means I get back to 19-20 days off a month, thank you very much.
