These are also the same people that refuse to pay more for health insurance while getting a higher hourly rate. I would rather get a $10 an hour raise and have an option to pay $750 more a month for insurance. Doing this would give those that want the insurance the same take home pay they have now but would give those that don’t want the insurance benefit for not taking it. Not everyone is old and needs the insurance the company provides. Some people just want more money. But who knows what’s in the TA, maybe it will be a shocker and industry leading. 😂
You realize this mentality hurts you in the long run right? Sure, you’re single and don’t “need” the medical now, until you need some crazy unexpected surgery, or you knock up your girlfriend and complain because you didn’t have the awesome $15 baby plan from Big Cheddar. It’s not about what you want now, it’s about protecting it and not giving away bargaining capital for future negotiations.
