Precisely. Here in MIA 3 ticket counters of red coats and only 1 blue. Gates with red coats sending down escorts and wheelchair assistance. Oversize run by red coats.john john said:
Call centers closed and farmed out and agents told to work from home for less pay and in the BK AA Freight agents scrubbed out and forced to train their replacements or no severance or Unemployment insurance.
I assume that you were trying to make a different point?

Of the companies with geographic pay differentials, 75% utilize the first method. The third method can encompass a formula-driven approach, in which a percentage adjustment is added to an employee’s base salary, according to the work location.

CWA membership ratified the changes to their contract that allow express pay with US Airways to help the troubled airline as it seeked to emerge from bankruptcy. This was done given the carrier's bankruptcy status and the past decision of the bankruptcy judge to allow US Airways to temporarily cut workers' wages by 21 percent and implement further benefit cuts while negotiations continued.700UW said:
Unlike money making United and the bad IAM United contract
And CWA negotiated this later
US Airways passenger service pay step freeze will be lifted, Holiday Option II will be resumed, and Mainline Express agents will be increased to the Mainline rate of pay...

The new Passenger Service Employee Association IBT + CWA has reached an Interim Transition Agreement with US Airways management on all the outstanding seamless service and transition issues, and we will accordingly withdraw our change of control grievance. After two months of negotiations by the committee (CWA Local Officers, attorneys and staff and IBT attorneys and staff) the agreement calls for the following:
1. End the pay step freeze for US Airways agents effective this coming April 1, 2006 – snap up to $18 per hour top rate from the current $17;
2. Reinstate the Vacation Option II (bid holidays as vacation) for US Airways effective the next vacation bid (Fall 2006);
3. Raise US Airways Mainline Express Agents to the Mainline pay scale in the following steps:

I've spoken to many people who argue against it but it never fails to surprise me that those who are against it always live in low COL areas. May I ask once again where you live and work John John?john john said:
So is your solution to what I see as an obvious problem to be "Well if they don't like it they can move" or "That's not my problem where they chose to live"
Can you offer up any solution? Or should we just remain with the ideology "Hey look at me living here in Miss-iss-i-ppi, King of the World"

Hey check this one out. Notice the single RED dot. Babylon NY. That's out on the tip of Long Island. My cousins grew up in Babylon and some still live there. My best buddy lives a town over in Smithtown. 52 years old and stuck living with his Mom and Dad.
The color of the markers corresponds with the Cost of Living in the city. Red markers show more expensive cities, green ones show cheaper cities.
The size of the markers correspond with the population of each city.
Moving the mouse on top of a city will show its name and the Cost of Living Index of the city.

Hey John John check this out. I was able to find a Studio in Long Island city for only $1350.00 per month. Hey ain't that fantastic.
Again. Where did you say that you live? Did I miss your answer?
Oh and this won't be concessionary negotiations so you can take a chill pill on that one.

BTW John John in Fleet 7% above the top DL base rate comes out to $26.50. Still SUX for some places in my eyes
"Perfect World" We take the industry averaging in September and the percentage above that to the DL comparison gets doled out to those places that really NEED it.
Don't worry though there Bro, I know I don't live in a perfect world. But someone should always sell the dream.
