We are in a good economy. The company is reporting record profit margins. They're admitting that contract negotiations will be dragged on for years, building deterrents to basic healthcare benefits, asking new-hires to sign a $24,000 training contract, and making daily CBA violations. How do you think this will look in a bad economy? I hope I don't have to find out. I don't see this turning around. The only people that win here are the senior managers that cash-out after a liquidity event.
