New rig: 24 hour day / 3.75 = 6.4 credit hours

15 work days (5 week bid month) x 6.4 = 96 hours (approx)

Shouldn't the Avg BLG be somewhere around the 96 hour mark? How about the RLG? Would that not be affected as well?

I must not understand this. This was supposed to be another "gain" in our CBA..... A "pay raise" under a different name. I'm just not seeing it.


Thanks
