does it really matter? Is this only a good thing if it costs a lot?

the key point is that they get some option value and are willing to put some $ down for it.

Are you serious? It goes to who’s actually paying for this agreement. The union used this as a selling point. So yes, it matters.

It is a Pandemic Recovery vs a Furlough Mitigation LOA right?

He would rather see a furlough in June to prove he was right than have things improve. Guys like him have mentally gone off the rails.....and there are more than a few of them out there. Look out for yourselves at work.

Sure thing Scott. How about a June furlough terrorizes me because the cost is irrelevant?

Either you guys are management plants or this union has an open wallet to the company.

Pounding chest? That’s cute. I’m not the one making whacked out comments like the cost of an agreement is irrelevant.

More nutty conspiracy theories like these won’t justify your mindset.
