Myself and a few few others fought them for years in negotiations. We were retaliated against, lost large amounts of income, and we're constantly pressured to quit. It took five years and then a strike. Funny, all of us who held the line went on to much better jobs. At one time that place was a good stepping stone. The Feds and the IBT have managed to put some order to them in the last few years. So, no I didn't fail the interview. In fact, I think you dismissed those few that laid in on for three weeks of lost pay during 2009.
