That's going to take a looooong time to accomplish. Guys on the property now are safe and some have 20-25 years to retirement. RLA lets the contract continue on forever.

The automaker's would like to be there and STILL haven't found away after declaring BK.


By "safe" I mean they will not be able to contract out US origin/bound freight. I know that's debatable but the threat of a work stoppage will prevent it IMHO.

They're pushing it with the furlough. I think they're searching for a limit on how far they can go.
