12% my arse
SA,
Since you seem to enjoy working with numbers, could you see if you can figure out where the 12% comes from? Other than being conjured from thin air, I can't think of ANY way they could say there is a 12% raise being proposed.
starting salary = $1,800/month under expired CBA.
starting salary = $1,900/month in proposal.
that's about 5.3%
as you go up, the increase % decreases in proportion to the already existing salary. for example:
AA salary under expried CBA = $2,500/mo
AA salary in proposed CBA = $2,600/mo
about 4%.
actually, i think i may have figured out the 12%...
AAA salary or $3,400 goes up to $3,500...about 3%.
5.3% + 4% + 3% = 12.3%.
it would appear to me that instead of adding up these percentages and dividing by the three levels...they simply left out the division part and published the 12% figure.
check me if i'm wrong, sandy, but if i kill all the golfers they're gonna lock me up and throw away the key...
