I'm going to keep saying this until we vote on our contract. Those hourly rates you post are nice....much better than ours. But, they make all the quan on trip rigs/touching trip vacation/trip splitting/general solid contract/etc. We need to look at hourly rates last.
With the right contractual changes, I would almost vote yes to no hourly increase. See my point? It's all about the W-2.
Sit and have a beer with a SWA guy.
