I know for a fact that some of the bid awards were inappropriate. The union knows this too. They have been silent about it, and again we get more info from the company than our union reps.

Why is that?

The first practice bid was fubared, hopefully they will get it worked out before the real bid closes. Can't get too worked up over a practice bid, but if it doesn't work how can you trust the real one? I guess since the company has decided to cancel awards at will none of the bids really matter anyway.
