I paid for every sprinkle in my contract, on my ice cream,(I like mint chocolate chip BTW,) and so did you. Insist on enforcing it, or no sprinkles for you.
I won't speak for 6, but I'm not happy when the company violates the contract, so when the company violated Contract '02 we used the grievance process under Contract '02 to get it resolved. One of the options available in the grievance process was to settle it before an arbitrator decided. That's what happened. We had rights under our contract that we utilized. I guess we should be denied the right to enforce our contract.
The amount of money to settle it may be questionable to a lot of people and that's a different matter. I personally wouldn't have an issue if the shoe was on the other foot. Seriously, I wouldn't.
