To me, that is the exact same thing as "Labor risk is off the table."
Fair enough. So long as we agree that this is our impression of what he may have meant, and not what he actually said.
The question in my mind, and what I would have loved to have seen LM clarify, is what he means by "radical overhauls." Is he talking about major increases in pay and/or benefits, or is he talking about major changes to the basic structure of work rules, etc.?
I sure hope it's the latter. I could live with keeping the basic structure of our contract so long as the individual numbers are ratcheted up -- a lot.
