Ok plane Jane,planejane said:So a judge rules on the unions behalf and then what? U is out of business. Explain that to the children of the now unemployed airline workers who won't be able to go to dance class, soccer touraments, or the college they had hoped for. I'm sure the children will understand your point of winning at all cost. I live around a lot of U employees and I believe when push comes to shove, all this grand standing will deminish. Even with a paycut, they know damn well, they are still much better off with the paycut. Cost of Blue Cross and Blue Shield per month for a family of 4 - $2,400. That's your 80/20 plan. No dental, no frills. Didn't Continental go twice into BK? Their employees stock zeroed - twice! And aren't they being asked to give again? So Seigel screwed up on the first paycuts and BK - so shut the company down? That's logical.

Look, it's not a question of whose fault it will be. My comment about Teddy's efforts being misguided is that they will not change the ultimate outcome.
I'm certainly not a cheerleader for greed or corruption. I defy you to find a single post on any board where I have said that I support greed or corruption. My stance has been, and remains, that wishing things were different doesn't change the outcome. You have to play the game according to what is, not what should be.
I know a vocal few here are probably advocating "shut it down," "full pay to the last day," "the concession stand is closed," etc.mweiss said:Of course. And if you were in the shoes of the rest of this nation's employed, what you would choose to do under those conditions is quit. Not shut the employer down. Quit. But what I keep reading here is something sounding much like a spiteful desire to "quit" by shutting the company down.
