Again this is 100% on the union going back to last year. This is not a new thing. They've known a out it for a long time, and they are trying to hide that fact. It's despicable.
As for the company unilaterally implementing it, I think it had to do with PBS coming online. But they were willing to make it happen earlier if the east gave up the two day bid sheet, which they didn't want to do, and here we are.
The company is the one with the hand on the throttle. We voted to give them that, they could have made it happen with any repercussions that went along with it. Maybe we could have had just what you said, but had the company implemented our agreed upon contract, there was nothing we could have done about it.
