[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5235387, member: 49065"] O’Brien has already stated that he wants these two tier (22.4) positions eliminated and morphed into the RPCD pay scales. Seniority Part timers will get the same GWI’s as the full timers plus any COLA increases. In today’s economy 40 bucks an hour is now considered middle class wages. The average RN makes over 40 an hour, my son worked at a high end restaurant and cleared 300 a night just in tips. Some fast food places are now starting out at 20 an hour. Plenty of money out there, have you seen the profit margins every quarter since the pandemic, UPS stock has doubled over the last contract talks. Don’t fall for expected “we can not afford it” claims coming with our future negotiations next year...Same olde song and dance show...🎼🎵🎶 [/QUOTE]
