So.. what do we want:

* More money and Less time off.

* Normal bidding or PBS.

Also on a recent report that one of our guys did after reviewing the differences in both, The Current Contract and the TA, mentioned that the health Ins. POS A goes up nearly 300%.

This is out of my checks:

POS II A:

NOW
EE+2: 110.00 every chk= 220 month

TA
EE+2: 165.00 every chk= 329 month

That's a 50% or 109.00 dollars increase, not 300%.

(what Am I missing?)

Don't get me wrong, any increase on anything other than pay is a pay cut, but personally, because every person has different financial responsibilities, think that an increase of 110 a month on health Ins does not off set my pay increase while keeping my current benefits.

So far I still a YES, we'll see next week at the "circus maximus show". Cant wait to see the dude with the hairy nostrils go crazy about OT, bring popcorn!
