Blind sided like fighting for a slot swap that went 93% to RJ's? Closed sessions are nothing more than management feeding one-sided bits of information to union officials so they will do the work that management used to have to do.

Once invited into the executive suite, union officials are hooked. Period. They will use any bit of tortured logic required to ensure they keep getting those invitations. Closed sessions are a fraud. Anytime the members don't know what their representatives know, the members no longer make the decisions and you have a top-down organization.
