[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 827918, member: 14176"] Contract language is only as good as the employees enforcing it. The company is not held accountable to the language we have now. What good would new language do us? Money is the only thing driving this companies ideology. To take a pay freeze would "freeze" things as they are. I believe the only thing that will reduce overtime is the hourly rate. Only when the hourly rate rate (especially at time and a half) outweighs the profitability to reduce cars on road, will we find the company looking to reduce overtime. I think we have already seen the beginning of that trend. This is evident by the companies insistence to keep us under 9.5. Perhaps this is the present day Mendoza line. Who believes this is because of present day contractual language? Not me. As others have echoed, contractual language aside from the aforementioned exception of the hourly rate, has no effect on this company. Give up pay raises and we go backwards. [/QUOTE]
