3. As part of the JCBA, everyone will get the same increases for several years, then in 2012 you get an additional 3% DC raise, while I'll get zip.
And YOU'RE complaining?
Okay, you're uneducated.
My upgrade went from approximately 5 years to 10 years. A massive pay cut for 5 years on either contract. 10% of the NWA list has left in 2 years, what fraction of the DAL list has?
I gained a 9% hourly raise and a 7% reduction in guarantee hours for a net 2% raise. So no, not a 10% raise.
Work with facts and we can have a more constructive discussion.
