[QUOTE="vvv, post: 5646289, member: 63825"] Nice idea but ain't happening and doesn't work like that buddy. If so then you are assuming them giving you approx $27,000-30,000 to get $20,000 after taxes. Also, how many years do you have in? If you were ready to retire very soon (like me) you can think very selfishly and want the $20,000 upfront and screw everyone behind you with not so many years in on a wage freeze.....which I wouldn't do as that's being a prick. So having said that if you still have a decent amount of years to work here you have to think long game and compound that raise out not just over 5 years but many more contracts down the road. And that would also lower your overtime pay greatly long term. That $20,000 will be chump change to a guy that has quite a ways to go. And as I mentioned just flat out screwing everyone who is to come after us. Gotta think things thru before you put "pen to paper" my friend. [/QUOTE]
