Giving us a pay boost.

And we get to wait while everyone gets at least two more contacts up on us.
FDX ALPA you totally screwed Contract 2015 up. Miserable failure.
And you Family Guy ... yes you ... you big fatty ... you failed us tremendously.
Now let's give the company a way to kill the A-plan, giving the senior bubbas yet another way of screwing those left behind.

The latest "using computers is hard" message from IT.
Now we have what essentially equates to a resource available display on open time. YGBSM!!! Maybe use some of those corporate tax savings and UPGRADE THE RESOURCES instead of putting in a usage meter that tells us how bad they suck.
IT's spelling capability is about on par with their main job, it would seem.
"This request requires signifigant processing to accomplish."
Checking a list of open trips for a seat is draining our processing power? So are we going to see signs up around AOC with "Every tron counts"?

However, seems like some never learn. The MEC has decided that the A Plan needs to be frozen and some are willing to just go along with it. Not too long ago, employees looked at companies that offered a pension as the mark of a world-class organization. How quickly we forget.

In defense of our ways of doing things, I often hear "but our system form is much more complicated". I call BS. I will give you that it is different and can present challenges but I think the real problem is we are set in our ways and think we are smarter than everyone else.
