Just asking, not intending to stir the pot.
As Bluedude notes, when first class hit five year mark last year, a new contract for everyone was presented. There was much discontent, so management rescinded the new contract and just added an addendum to the old one, including the pay scale for the 190.

I, for one, am fairly content for now, but I expect to get a raise when our margins get back up (whenever that happens...$25 intro fares on new routes and 59$ transcon fares for "buddies" will not help our yields!). If that does not happen, and if stock price does not go up, and profit sharing dries up...stand by.
