Huh?
This is not true, by a long shot. It takes years of negotiation (if management wants it to), in a manner palatable to the NMB in order to get released. The NMB, not unions, is tolerant of management delay tactics,,, oh we didn't have time to look at we need a few more weeks, it's literally "the dog ate my homework".
Then you better hope the political winds are in your favor when the time comes.
