They gave up their chance for representation to get those benefits.

Thx Buzz. I have two mid-level paddle boards from being on our lake... we'll see how they work in the big blue (probably have to upgrade to a more ocean going vessel)... great core work out!

Sailing, so does that mean we will be getting back our pension?

Gloopy

The tablets are leased for I think 3 years for just that reason.

'scuse me!?! Yes we did have a B scale and you know we know it! We also lost the sixth week vacation that hasn't been returned.

The five year plan I've heard talks about expanding A concourse way further out and gaining quite a few more A concourse gates.

Not exactly what I've heard from the SEA CPO office...

Boy.... Sailing used a BAD choice of words on that one!!!! D'oh!

Anyway, they aren't ever guaranteed anything from year to year and can have it taken away at any time. They have NO control over their raises, etc.

We do. I also think it provides a nice springboard to improve our vacation in 12 months when we open!!

I understand what you are saying and I generally agree with what sailing has to say but, as you stated, his choice of words was pizz poor and needed to be answered.
