It'll be quite a while before we see those rates again. If we surpass the cargo guy's pay rates, it will mostly be because of the cuts they've taken, rather than the raises we've gotten.
That is how us Cargo guys/gals ended up on top..............Not because we negotiated anything, but unfortunately because of the bankruptcy courts chain-sawing all of your guys great contracts! I hope we can do the industry proud this time.........
