This is the argument. Pay vs. profit sharing. Profit sharing is a relatively new thing. A way for management to reduce regular pay.

You don't think they play with the numbers? Absolutely they do. Every time any of the unions are in contract talks, management hides money and profits. Lots of ways to do it. In the past, management used this to buy new ground equipment. See a new bag cart? We must be in contract talks. Those things are indestructible. I know, they try!

We all would be better off with higher pay, instead of profit sharing. Times are good right now, but they won't be for long. That extra check will go to zero real quick.
