"Taking a big hit"
Just where has your renumeration been reduced?
You signed a substandard deal against all advice.
The HKAOA is working to get that deal improved for you and then you attempt to white ant the efforts to restore a negotiated RP agreement so as to expedite a "supposed" increase in HPA.
The terms myopic and conceited come to mind.
I and many others in the AOA are prepared to do what we can to get your HPA increased but be in no doubt your white anting of the goal for a negotiated work practices agreement (read RP's) that will benefit all for the long term will not be held at gunpoint to a minority but vocal self interest group.
