As to your beliefs...can't help you there. But the economy is specifically listed in the TA as one of the reasons the ratio can't change.
Good Luck!
I've tried to point that out with no success!
FTB,
You generally have made some great points but I have to agree with Slow on this one. If you think the Union will not enforce the contract on scope then why would they enforce it on other sections? I'm not going for the: the union is in mangements back pocket argument. If that were the case we would be giving them as many large RJ's as they want, no ratios, and no pay increases etc.
