Question Phoenix

Thanks always movin, I might just do that!!
Im beginning to lose track of the IAA's train of logic.
If we refuse to do overtime to highlight the staffing crisis thereby reducing our income the IAA say its an attempt to extort a lucrative overtime payment scheme.
If we say that we need more staff so that we never have to do overtime and we can take all our leave the IAA say its an attempt to extort a lucrative overtime payment scheme.

The IAA call on the union to stop Fogging the issue as they need help understanding the bleeding obvious.

Maybe if we all handed back our expert assignments and take the pay cut for that we could prove to management that its not about money. Then, with all the staff off projects we wouldn't need OT and we could get our leave. Of course the IAA would have to find other ways to train new recruits and so on but that would be their problem wouldn't it? I mean with ALL that money they'd have saved on expert allowances they could find somebody to to the job as well as we could.
