I think the key is that there was a lot promised, as far as anyone can tell it is not being implemented TODAY. If you are sub-3000 hours, continue to apply until you see it printed somewhere the mins are 3,000. Pay raise? Trust me, there will be a TON of emails regarding the increase, until then, nothing is happening. It will be interesting to see how quickly some of the QOL improvements that were discussed are implemented. It is pretty simple to send an email to the hotel department and say "Start booking Marriotts when able" or scheduling "1st day of rotation should not start before 7am", simple email to see some of the changes that were discussed. When I start to see later start times, being booked at the Marriott properties, less crowded go home days, then I will believe the rest of this is "in the works". Until then they are just potential ideas. The bad part is if some of the deliverables are not delivered within a reasonable amount of time, you risk an attrition problem of unbelieveable proportions.
