Yeah the negotiation committee should’ve been able to predict a viral pandemic that started two years after they presented the contract that would restrict international travel and visas resulting in more jobs than people to fill them along with two years of free money by the government. Cut me a break.

Huh?


The starting union wage is lower than minimum wage. That's an issue.

I fully agree with you more combo jobs would actually help the company as those people generally are here for the long-haul but the company is too short sighted to see that.
They have added some of these jobs in some areas I work around… lock them into fulltime work and they will stick around… give them incentives to stay…it works

That minimum wage in Washington is really a "living wage" as they call it. It is more than double what many other states have for minimums. It is a good thing, but no one on the negotiating committee saw that coming, and neither did I.

For decades minimum wages were $2.65-3.85, and later another few decades between $6.50-8.50 So, $15 - $20 per hour is a little out of character, and quite a new thing.

Certainly, the locals need to beat the minimums, hopefully by a significant margin.

They created numerous 22.3 jobs here lately. But they only account for a small portion of the inside workforce. These jobs can literally be life changing for someone.

everyone knew this would happen when the contract was pushed through. not enough people voted so the union implemented the 2/3 rule. the worst thing they could've done. part timers were screwed big time on the hourly wage, especially in regions where minimum wage was already approved to be $15 hour by 2022 (California). BEST CONTRACT EVER; and now all the new hires are finding out why most of those that actually voted, voted NO.
