minus-square@Sheldan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•1 day agoI don’t read it like that. The sentence just says that their pay rate has that amount, not that it is connected to them not being a union member.
minus-square@Sheldan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•edit-21 day agoThe people the contract is with, maybe all employees of the company have the agreement. You are thinking way too much into that statement, the way I described is the way it works here, and that seems much more likely tbh.

minus-square@Sheldan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink0•21 hours agoYou are saying it’s union members vs non union members being separated. And it’s not.
minus-squareOBJECTION!linkfedilink0•21 hours agoThe union members are included in the “we” that contractually makes $0.50/hr more than… union members?
minus-square@Sheldan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•19 hours agoThe contract negotiated by the unions just defines the minimum, union members can earn more.
minus-squareOBJECTION!linkfedilink0•14 hours agoI can’t tell if that’s a yes or a no to the question of whether the “we” that gets paid more than union members includes union members.
minus-square@Sheldan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink0•9 hours agoYes, because the union contract defines the absolute minimum of the rate, and union members can also earn more. This will be my last response, it’s frustrating, these are basic principles of how these contracts work and I’m tired of explaining it.

Who’s “we” then, if not non-union members?
