I know my personal situation aside there were also debates between the Union and the Company on how they "count" things - in that case it was for flow purposes. So it isn't just me. I can guarantee for every 1 person that does vocalize their discontent there are 10 more that are discontent that don't because they feel like their Union doesn't care and ultimately they feel like the Company doesn't care. There will probably be some company shill along shortly though to dismiss us as the "vocal minority". Truth is we're fed up to the point that we really don't fear retribution for speaking out anymore as starting over somewhere else is something we're already considering.

Also, calling changes to bring us out of the dark ages and up to industry standard "industry leading" just makes them look effin stupid. I'm not saying to not be positive about good changes but take off the blinders already.
