Why the angst over VBs? I thought DALPA could unilaterally pull it down?
I would be very,very leery of eliminating this unilateral pull down option in the future. For example we have VBs for a year and then the company wants to make it permanent.
Here are a few ways I would characterize that:
Danger! Danger Will Robinson!
Wouldn't be prudent.
DALPA declines to acquiesce to the companies request.
A union has got to know its limitations
What we would have there would be a failure to communicate - wisely.
I've got a bad feeling about this.
DALPA has chosen poorly.
And finally - What could possibly go wrong?
Basically I don't think the VB will be a big deal - unless we are stupid and agree to making it permanent without the unilateral pulldown feature.
