Fedup,

I understand your arguments and agree with a lot of it. But for me, it all comes back to the union (guys I know and trust, both Sr and Jr) putting this back up to us with the recommendation that this is the best that they can do.. for now. I wish the Negotiating Committee felt that all we had to do in order to get a better offer was to vote this down with an overwhelming majority and they could go back and get us a better deal. If that were the case, a no brainer....I would vote NO. That is not what they are telling us. I do wish the union would explain their feelings as to why they feel this LOA is as good as it is going to get. That I do not understand.

Respectfully
