    Works 100% of the time 60% of the time.

      It works for people that went to a good school.

      This is not a grammatically complicated statement, or incorrect.

      Y’all are just easily confused.

        The original post is just a bad sentence. I’m about 12.4% sure it’s a run on sentence. Good school or not the structure is all wrong. I’m still confused as to if the 12.4% raise was offered before or after the union threatened to strike. The sentence does a terrible job describing the cause and effect of the situation. Wouldn’t it make more sense to bring up the union threat before the raise? And as others have pointed out 12.4% isn’t even correct.

          It’s not a run-on sentence.

          It’s not even a notably long one.

          The claimed details of the raise are not confusing, regardless of their accuracy.

          It’s fine to struggle with reading, you don’t need to blame others for your lack of understanding.

            I believe it is the responsibility of the writer to create a clear sentence.

              It is not the fault of a writer operating on a 10th grade level that the average product of the American educational system is a barely literate monkey that assumes their blatant incompetence must be someone else’s fault.

                I’m not sure what the American education system is and what that has to do with this? You seem very condescending towards people who are confused by this clearly confusing sentence. “Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.” Is a grammatically correct sentence but good luck understanding what it means without looking on Wikipedia.
