I just read the IPNN for Wednesday, Dec 26 and it said in the "Sick Bank" topic that 2008 pay raises will go into effect 1/27/2008 for the 2/11/2008 paycheck.

I am on a trip and do not have the contract in front of me and can't remember the link to the union site (I always click a desktop icon from home).

I thought the contractual pay raises went into effect on the first day of the new year, not 1/27

What gives?? We're giving the company a whole month of work in 2008 at 2007 pay rates?

That stinks.
