Not true. The new contract/extension included increased monthly hours for those positions. Also the base was still bumped up and they are receiving the 50% premium increase until Aug 2024. They may have seen the smallest increase, but they are still seeing a significant windfall, and not just the premium. I think this is also likely to pull some of the lifer into some of those positions that have previously avoided them or have taken a break from them.
