Trick,
You ain't seen nothing yet, if this contract passes. What we have experienced thus far is like a Sunday go to meeting class compared to what we have in store for us on this new contract.
I agree.
It's not about the money. I get paid enough. They can keep the .35 and let me keep the other .35.
My concern is the language such as "past practice", sub-contracting feeder work, feeder drivers with less than 3 seniority can be laid off if their load is put on the rail (where did this come from?) and some of the other language they sneaked in while dangling the "retirement carrot" in front of us.
Inasmuch as the IPO was designed to benefit one group of people (the already millionaire managers and the descendants of the founding fathers), this contract is designed to benefit one group of people (those at or near retirement).
God help us if this contract passes.
