You've definitely wasted my time, but I'll be waiting for whenever you want to exchange PMs and meet in person.

Seeing as this is an anonymous forum, you should go ahead and name the LEC or committee. Making a vague statement in addition to hiding behind anonymity isn't cool.

Volunteer list, per the CBA = That's cool, man. Thumbs up to our union for not acting like the Clinton Foundation when it comes to overtime.
Anything else?

Southwest giving profit sharing to employees be the have a "people first" approach. Roughly 13%. We have got a long way to go and I really hope the NC is sticking to their guns and getting us what we deserve.
Valentine’s Day came a bit early for Southwest Airlines employees, with the carrier announcing Thursday that they’ll be receiving an additional six weeks of pay through the company’s profit-sharing program.
Southwest’s nearly 54,000 employees will share in a $586 million payout, just off the record $620 million the carrier doled out last year. Southwest reported a record 2016 profit of $2.24 billion.
This year’s profit-sharing payment translates to about 13.2 percent additional pay for each Southwest employee. It’s the company’s 43rd consecutive year of profit-sharing.
“Our people-first approach, which has guided our company since it was founded, means when our company does well, our people do really, really well," Southwest CEO Gary Kelly said in a statement. "Our people work incredibly hard and deserve to share in Southwest's success."
Southwest implemented a new payment structure this year that will pay 10 percent of the profit-sharing into a retirement account and the remaining 3.2 percent in cash. Some union employees will receive the full amount as a retirement contribution, depending on their contract.
The payments will be made on April 20.
North Texas’ other carrier, American Airlines, will also be making a profit-sharing payout to its employees, its first since 2000. American’s employees will share in $314 million.
