I’m just asking for a smattering of details about positions on a contract that will directly influence my quality of life for the next (and let’s be honest) 10 years.
Union negotiations are obviously different than military secrets, but they need to be done behind closed doors. Perhaps high stakes poker would be a better analogy where each side doesn’t want to show their hand. Both sides are trying to play their hand and both sides will bluff. We just have to wait and see how it turns out. We haven’t been playing this hand for years. We’ve only been shuffling the deck and really just started playing cards since the Delta TA deal was ratified.
