[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 1429991, member: 14176"] The IBT completely sold us out by siding with the company on this issue, at least in the Central Region. The language in the Central Region Supplement is clear and rigid in Article 15 sec 1. It states unequivocally that "seniority employees shall not be required to work" on this named holiday. Section 4 of the very same article outlines the pay rate when a "regular seniority employee is required to work as otherwise provided in this agreement". The only place where this is "otherwise provided for" is in Article 40 of the National Master, which only provides for an air operation. How is this not an additional slap in the face in the wake of having this contract imposed on us? How was this not forseen by the company and union and negotiated in good faith, rather than rammed down our throats, again? I'm so tired of being treated like I'm stupid and cannot read and digest what is written. When will we wake up and demand that the IBT side with the members instead of the company. At the very least we deserve an additional option day in exchange for this transgression. [/QUOTE]
