[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 4656542, member: 42554"] Not been hired and may never be hired. Did you do the math on the last Contract? Our wage 'increases' did not beat inflation meaning we actually will make less. The Union makes the argument every time that increasing the starting wage would reduce turnover and attract better applicants but do you realize that if we were to "fight" for a higher starting wage that means either accepting a lower wage increase to make up for it or a work stoppage? How exactly do you sell that? "Guys I know you're all making over 6 figures right now but I need you to STRIKE! so Joe MaybeNeverHired can make more right off the bat. Yes I know you all went through a long progression to get to where you are but c'mon do it for Sally NotEvenAppliedYet! Whaddya Say! No? OK how about taking a haircut for them? I realize there may be a significant economic downturn, maybe even a recession that would necessitate layoffs at any time but c'mon guys!" If you can sell that be my guest. [/QUOTE]
