Guess what, you can’t have your cake and eat it too…it’s called negotiations, and I think our MEC/NC did each and everything they could fight for in negotiations.
Exactly. I'll easily be making 15-20% more with the work rules on top of the raise. Some people have the inability to look past a number. They'll still be furiously typing away on apc while the rest of us will be finding clever ways to take advantage of the new rules.
