Cuts pay two yrs in a row!! Merry Xmas!!! Keep up the good work guys...My preflights are going to get real good

 

[DUATS]

They want you to quit so they can hire some of the furloughed guys from other fracs at first year pay!

 

[gunfyter]

Pay cuts?

 

[fugazi]

How much did they reduce the pay?

 

[RCA]

It's basically a shifty way of introducing a pay freeze plus 2%. It's a sh!TTY deal and will do nothing except further destroy morale.

 

[rigger]

So the company comes in after cutting long term disability, Cutting the insurance and raising the rates Huge, shorting crews and forcing overtime. Then for the second year at the same time they reduce your next years increase....Oh it's not a pay cut they say it's only a reduction in something we told you you would get. This all happens while at the same time management is telling you how busy they are and how they appreciate the hard work.....

[Fozzy]

Shocking.

 

[commuterguy]

For the life of me I can't understand why you people don't unionize. Pathetic.
​

 

[Freedom]

Simple:

For the life of me I can't understand why you people don't unionize. Pathetic.​

Some would rather live on their knees, rather than risk dying on their feet.

No risk, No reward.

Did the Options guys get everything they wanted? No.

But when they were getting raped by former CEO Michael Sh-tfinger, they did not just stand there and take it; the vast majority fought back.

Its a Character thing. Some have it, some don't.

 

[gunfyter]

I think for Options there was some bad timing ... with the economy taking a hit at the same time as the negotiations.
