No need to dangle anything in front of us. They have federal law backing them to force concessions. We WILL be taking concessions one way or another thanks to the bankruptcy judge.
no doubt. But I think its a grey area as to how long an imposed deal lasts once you exit BK. I mean, do you immediately start negotiating a new deal? I think the company can impose pay rates/work rules, etc, but they cannot impose a time frame for the contract. It's to CMRs advantage to negotiate a deal and have things locked down for the next 3-4 years. Otherwise, why would they ever negotiate? If there was no downside to imposing a contract, none of the BK carriers would have reached a negotiated deal.
