To the not yet joined:
What has been offered is a pittance of a pay increase in the face of record profits.
What has been offered is a deal thats good for the old guys - cause the company needs some trainers to hang around in the face of expansion. And its good for the freighter guys - cause the company needs them to stop leaving for better pastures.
And its not much good for the rest. Especially not for anybody joining at the bottom as an SO.
As always I like my job but I fear for my future....
