Anyway…..no harm no foul. Let’s just get a contract that bumps our pay rates 40% and fixes our STD/LTD/LOL fiasco. Oh, and of course has a FULL retro/signing bonus.

And by 40% I mean as of today, cause the longer these fckers drag it out the higher my expectations go…..like by the month my expectations are increasing. Oh, psssst…..I WILL STRIKE.

Well that’s something I think we can agree upon.

And the interisland will increase according to BJ...

Pay should start 30 minutes before scheduled departure, and end 15 minutes after scheduled/actual arrival.
Problem solved.

I'm with you. I'd rather do a 4-day with 4 crossings than two days of inter island in the middle. Way too much ground time on a long day.
