Thanks! That's how read it. I'm getting better at the PWA interpretation.

Is there still a PBS help desk? Trying to find anything on the DALPA website is pointless.

Show me the money AND time off.

This is a rock solid take from another good dude on chitchat: We must be willing to walk away from this job and never come back.

I am.

When is the strike vote?
