PJ,
Today and Friday are travel days. Negotiations start April Fools Day and
continue through Thursday unless talks go in to overtime. It is not clear who
requested whom to come to the table. If RC requested talks, it could be seen
by some members to be bad judgment. JR and PF are both scheduled for
arbitration cases which are scheduled way in advance. Thursday is the day
that the Mechanics vote. Stalling negotiations one week would possibly have
been more prudent. As far apart the company and the union have been
since last year, one would think that nothing could realistically be settled in
three days time. The only reason the M&R could come to an agreement is
because they were close last year and could iron out the finalities in a short time.
We shall see.
Take that O-man :bleh
Joe, they are drinkin' a little hair of the dawg!
