I have talked to many other people who are around management, and who are in the union. They all agree they would be shocked if we lost our pay rates. But it all just depends on the market.
Plausible.

I'd tend to expect that the rollback of the 2022-era regional raises will be more gradual, via inflation and whipsaw over time as permitted by market dynamics.

Although in a big "you're just lucky to have a job" industry downturn, anything is on the table.
