Unfortunately I only play one on TV!
And a cancelled one at that!!
As far as grievences go, I think there is definitely a difference in the way DALPA and NWALPA pursued them. My impression is that NWALPA used a more "shotgun" type approach while DALPA used/uses a "sniper" type approach. I'm not saying one is better than the other just that DALPA has a tendency to only pursue those grievences they feel they have a 90% chance or better they can win it. (Again, my impression only)
With a hard number ratio that one can put in front of an arbitrator and show that the company is in violation, in my mind, it's a no brainer to pursue. I guess time will tell.
