I'm glad you're optimistic on that angle though. I like your judgement over all and I admit maybe I'm too suspicious at times but it's better to be over cautions than over trusting. That goes for management as well as our own with secrets to keep from us for whatever reason.
All good points, but the biggest problem with it is the wedge it drives between union leaders and union members. Anytime a union leader knows something that they can't disclose to the members, it divides us. And if what they "know" is a purposeful lie by management, it's all the more damaging to us.
