Not getting involved in the rest of the argument, but this particular statement is not correct. The only time we (PSA) get 200% is during the week that covers Thanksgiving and Christmas. It’s also an LOA for each season. It’s not certain we’ll get that this year.

We used to get critical that paid 150% during the rest of the year that was triggered by the reserve grid. Our union voluntarily gave that up along with a better 125% SDO for our new “premium pay” tier system. The old system was more complicated but it paid better.... and a heck of a lot better if you knew how to use it. I’m making $14/hour (18% raise) more with our new pay rates but will actually only make about 2% more than I was making with the old pay rates and better OT. And that was just using the 125% SDO. Days off are roughly the same, but I didn’t have to work as hard under the old system either.

I’m curious what you guy’s OT is like. Ours isn’t that great.
