We are the few that still have a pension, I am talking about National trying to get a pension back at those places because of this concept. Thus pattern bargaining the other way. The main point of your post in my opinion is their plans were terminated in bankruptcy and we are offering to negotiate ours away. Absurd. And yes, I have contacted my rep.
