How about some good news on this Friday...

Our MEC released the "official" 5/4 Day Off Arbitration ruling via PDF to our emails. Although it is a "cease and desist" order, the arbitrator makes it clear that there will be financial penalties if the company tries these shananigans again...

I found it interesting that the arbitrator kinda "lectured" the company and the union in his ruling about the pitfalls of having vague language in a contract. He leaves you the impression that this whole arbitration should have never happened IF we had stronger, clearer, precise contractual language. Lesson learned maybe??

So, let's grab our mini cans of Pringles and ramen noodle soups and be thankful for a small, but important victory at Espirito Wing!
