Then we can say "didn't see that coming" and "we'll get em next time"....when the company has what they want and is no longer interested in "constructive engagement".
The reps were pretty impressive in the questions they were asking.
Those guys have done their homework.
They were well prepared to grill Scrappy about this agreement.
Everybody has their opinion about whether this agreement is good or bad but I don't think the company is sneaking anything past us.
Split-duty trips are on the table. It is a huge decision for the MEC.
But I think they are doing it with their eyes wide open.
If you don't want these split duty trips, e-mail your rep right now.
They vote tomorrow. They are reading their e-mail.
