[QUOTE="Jones, post: 1068287, member: 4805"] That's all very well, but if you walk into the negotiations already talking about how you're willing to to agree to a pay freeze you might as just get on your hand and knees and assume the submissive posture. This company makes a lot of money and they are the employer, not the drivers. I didn't hire any part timers this year, so explain to me why I should be responsible for paying them or why they can only get a pay raise if I agree to a pay freeze? The company makes enough money to give all of us a raise, the only reason the part timers don't get one is because they don't participate in the process so neither the company nor the union worries/cares about them. Trying to frame it as a zero sum game between PT and FT is a false dichotomy. [/QUOTE]
