Why do you say that? The present CBA has provisions for determining R day value, and nothing in there constrains the company to ever put less than 15/19 days on an R-line. When they currently won't allow R-Day drops with a reserve-to-open time ratio of 6:1 and greater, I don't have a lot of hope that manglement will do anything they don't HAVE to in the way of preserving/enhancing what little QOL remains.
