I still can’t believe the Union agreed to this to start since it was already in the UPA for SRL lines.
Apparently we have a lot of fishermen in management.
The MEC is privy to company financial data and has paid analysts to determine how much cash the company is burning. The ESrl's were negotiated prior to the passage of the Relief package. Nobody wants furloughs;. in that context, ,the ESRL's make more sense. When September 30th rolls around, the Hoi Polloi will be screaming at the union to cut everyone's hours and pay guarantees to avoid furloughing.
