Haha. That's funny because it's true.
But in all seriousness, under the RLA, we are at the mercy of the NMB. That's just the way it is. I don't think it is any secret that the company intends to drag this to the 11th hour. I seriously doubt the Mediator is going to let the company slide 'bottom of the industry' proposals across the table for the next year or two. But who knows... they are the only ones who can designate the 11th hour.
I would like to see some picketing and a strike vote though. I hope that those plans are being made.
