You can be positive that every single other FO in the industry will make more than you do.

We've had 3 MEC chairs since negotiations opened. If the 3rd string quarterback comes into the game when it's already 48 - 0 you can't blame the loss on the him. The two turnovers he causes to make it 62-0 yes. But not the first 48 points lost.

According to a union rep, you're wrong ... none of that has happened. In fact, they got so fed up with the company no-showing negotiation meetings and then stonewalling during the few they actually did show up for, in late January the negotiating committee threw the proposed contract on JOs desk and told him to take it or leave it but they're done with their futile efforts in attempting to deal with him. According to the Mec rep, they are no closer to anything meaningful than they were over a year ago. Regardless of the propaganda we're being fed by the likes of Capt. Steve Trick in his little rumor-mill newsletter and the emails from JO, the company IS NOT bargaining in good faith. In fact, they're not attempting to bargain at all.

Another silly bonus
So I received the $300 bonus payment in yesterday's pay, for perfect attendance Nov-Dec-Jan. As a standard bonus payment, not included in hourly wages or salary pay, it was taxed for withholding at a 40% combined federal/state rate. That made the net pay $180. So, let's see with some back of the napkin calculations: three months, makes it $60 each. I have been averaging 19 work days per month, so that makes the daily bonus payment $3.16 per duty day. I think I'll upgrade to a double cheeseburger at Waffle House in Tucson tonight.
