i can't get my head around our reps being so out of touch with what we want that they didn't make this clear during negotiations. they claim that "we" said we wanted sunnies EBA. i heard people saying they want a similar BASE PAY not their EBA: NOT THE SAME THING!
NO to giving up the 7 hour rule!
NO to giving up meal allowances for a pathetic $3.83 DTA!
everyone i know who has added up how much they would be getting a fortnight with dta instead of meal allowances has figured out they'd be earning less. AND THATS INCLUDING THE HIGHER BASE PAY! and as EAAFA said, what about taxes???
5% PAY RISE MY a**e! a message to management: we aren't einsteins but we know how to use calculators!
