It would be the right thing to do!
I couldnt agree more. The Company nickel and diming us defeats the purpose of our Union, or should I say the intent of the RLA. I dont think our MEC has a clue to their tactics. And if they do, it is time to look in the mirror and fess up. After that, they can do the right thing!
