Skulldudgery and conspiracy. Maybe Tony needs to get out of his fantasy world and start working for the greater good. Funny how many first posters come here to whine its not going their way. We are going to end up with a TA with pay rates comparable to DL, because thats all anyone looks at. There will be no pension increase, a B fund increase and nebulous scope language to appease the scope crowd. The pie in the sky dreamers are going to be disappointed, as they are now, that those elected aren't getting everything everything they dream of.
