[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 4478319, member: 24302"] I would have desired they gave mid-range 3% raises on our lower money, instead of 2%, but they gave the 3% raises to topped out employees on much better pay. Work hard all year to get 32 cents while giving topped out high 60's low 70's cent raises. We were supposed to be catching top out, not falling further behind. Hard to tell somebody who's worked 10+ years that top out gets more because they've been here longer when they're making $6hr+ more than you. I would have desired that they told me up front they had no intention to ever top me out when I got rehired. 7-8 years they said. 12 years later I was still hearing that being told to newhires. And that was in multiple stations in multiple districts and regions. And now that the infrastructure is built? They're taking away freight to reduce or eliminate OT as well it appears to once again be taking away a pension plan. Last time they did that they convinced many to jump into the new plan. A choice they said. A year or so later they forced the rest of us into it. Gave us "catch up credits." The ones they convinced to voluntarily move into the new plan? No catch up credits for them. It was their intent to move as many people over as they could so that they could screw them out of thousands of dollars of retirement money. Meanwhile the rest of us thought we had been given a choice to stay in the traditional but they never intended to leave us there. A pack of lies. You must be very proud of these liars to come on here and constantly defend them. What's a few lies if you get your nice house and rosy future? You've sold your soul. So they did all of that to build up Ground infrastructure, telling people if they stuck with them it will pay off. Fred himself said that. [/QUOTE]
