[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 3606743, member: 49065"] C'mon people no ones wages need to be staggered or frozen..God..just look at their profit margins? They just got a huge tax break and are still going to pay minimum wages to the newbies. If nothing gets done with this contract it will never be done. Infighting does nothing except reflect the real issues. Rumor is that the first raise will be 70 cents and that will mean you can net after taxes 23 dollars full time on a 40 hour week and half that if part time 11.5 (two happy meals at McDonalds) is that enough to cover the cost of living increase for next year? When we finally get the tentative agreement on paper, analyze it and if it is not up to your expectations vote the sucker down, down and down (Master/Supplements and Rider). Just from my reading we should have more info by the end of the next week, then watch the fun begin. [/QUOTE]
