New Atlas CBA = Colossal Union Failure
#131
That’s ironic for a “labor” union that claims unity and looking out for the labor force.
You didn’t.

Well, when his counterpart was the lazy dip$ ht Ed Gleason, there wasn’t much challenge. What a fkking joke that clown was.
Which leads back to the original point of this thread: the union was dietrich’s doormat and good ol’ Bobb Henderson was pretty much right all along.
No he’s not. He’s just the only one who wanted to execute the merger clause of the cba AS IT WAS WRITTEN. Those with your mindset wanted to act like they were exempt from contractual language, and now you’re all “wow dietrich’s good at this” and surprised that you’ve lost.
Pretty fkkin dumb.

Whatever dude. That clown failed at leading a long time ago and has been nothing but disrespectful to everybody that came after his failure. He’s a DBag to fly with too. He literally spouted off about BK an average of once every couple minutes.
He’s behind APU..and I assume you’re one of his clown followers.

So…you’re either a Bobb Boy or you are Bobb himself…

The only times my path has merged with “APU” was while overflying Anbu near Taipei. But go ahead and ASSume away, moron. And if you think that ol’ easy-going Island man Bobb was a Dbag, you need to take off your fkkin diaper and grow the hell up.

I’m pretty sure you’re a supporter of APU…or Clean Slate…basically the same thing.

Thanks for this. FWIW I agree with your assessment here, but I am legally dumb. The question in my mind, and one I think we should ask isn't "What does the law, contract, etc. say?".
What's actually going to happen to our people in the field?. I'm asking "Can the company apply this the way they want to?". "Can a new organization without funding convince a judge of our interpretation here?". Although I am dumb, I have experienced litigation. I was amazed at how pliable law and enforcement really is. It worked out, but it let me appreciate my naivitee.
Litigation eventually comes to the mind of a judge. Judges are human and can be bent to read and enforce law in ways that are questionable or surprising. In theory and movies litigation occurs in a courtroom with arguments. Judges, in fact, are influenced in many, many ways.
I really think consulting with a tested, non-partisan expert (a litigator, specifically) who knows how to fight on this terrain would be a very wise investment. It's easy to start down a path, but it's hard to see what the end actually looks like.

First, we get this CBA implemented. THEN we worry about the next one. I mean, this one literally hasn't even been signed.

Good point on paralysis by analysis. I'm just trying trying to say we should look before we leap. If we decide to go, the departure will be hard-fought.

Besides pay, can someone tell me what the union was actually asking for in the new contract that you didn't get? I keep hearing that the company got everything it asked for but the union got nothing.
So what exactly did you want?
