Little dramatic, no? It is a 5 year contract. We can secure the extra 50 cents per hour next time around and save you the hundreds of thousands of dollars you almost lost. If we can be honest, this contract is so much better than the old one it is laughable. Hourly could certainly be more, but the sky is falling reassignment concerns have not happened. If fact I have already been delayed into a day off twice. That netted me 10 hours and a vacation day, and both times the reassignmentled to a dh on the last leg. First time, I got home before my original release time and the second time, I got home 90 minutes after.
