You know this.
What? It is in our contract.
What about our pay rates, or other sections of our contract?
And if we've waived part of this, unilaterally, what effect does that have on the rest? You are writing that this contract language is absolute, yet you know it is not, we have already waived it!
Frankly, I am scared when my Reps tell me "our contract is working because no one knows how to administer it." We just had some management types on the jumpseat talking about the furlough discussions this Summer. Yeah, I'm concerned.
