Air Traffic Control was GS-2152, now called AT-2152. I have never figured out why they took it into the Cleveland court, to stop all contracting in the country, why not D.C. Two controllers from Burke Lakefront Tower in Cleveland brought the action, with the Unions help. Seems to me if an employer wants to contract out your job and give you a transfer and promotion and pay for your move you shouldn't ***** about it. But when their negligence delays your transfer, and then they give you a smaller pay raise because of the delay by skipping the rules, compared to other identical employees who were not delayed and had their pay set correctly, wait a minute!! I think the problem was that the Union President came from a high level facility, New York Approach Control, and they look down on the Level One controllers, so his attitude was "they're getting a good enough pay raise as it is, screw them about the rest". Now he plays dumb and says he didn't realize the agreement would cause discrimination against employees. But a Federal Agency committing a Prohibited Personnel Practice against 28 employees, and then refuses to fix it and gives false information about it to two Senator's offices? What planet do we live on?
