[QUOTE="soberups, post: 3793914, member: 14668"] Any management person who claims that we will only be working 9.5 hours this peak is simply regurgitating a corporate talking point. The 8.2 hour day is a flavor of the week deal. Enjoy it while it lasts. If you need the OT, follow ORION and get your 10. [B]It is [I][U]not[/U][/I] a coincidence that the 8.2 mandate, the loss of ODO, the Investor “transformation” Conference and the contract vote[/B] [B]all happened at the same time.[/B] The narrative that the company is attempting to put forth to both employees [I]and[/I] investors is that we are being “transformed” by new technology that is a quantam leap in efficiency, and that the company now has the ability to replace us with low paid off-the-street new hires who can use the new technology as a substitute for area knowledge. Reducing our OT injects a bit of fear and financial uncertainty into the workforce (always a plus when a contract is being negotiated) as well as propping up the illusion that ORION works. Enjoy the 8.2 hour days. They wont be around for very much longer. [/QUOTE]
