A CBA is rarely negotiated by unions in good faith, it's normally negotiated by blackmail. It doesn't exactly fit into the phrase, because the company is not "willing" to pay for it, they are forced to by blackmail.

Last time I checked, "blackmail" was a crime. So, if your statement is true, shouldn't every negotiation end in criminal charges filed against the Union?

Also, last time I check, not bargaining in good faith was a duty required by both parties under the RLA. So, again, if your statement is true, shouldn't every negotiation end in a suit being brought against the Union?

You apparently have:

a) never sat in union negotiations
b) never been laid off or furloughed by the inaction of a union
c) have drunk way to much union koolaide


If you had, you would understand the union has replaced the word "blackmail" with "negotiations" and "good faith" with "I'll do whatever I want but not show up."

No, I've not been furloughed... yet... I'm still young.

I am involved with the Union, although have not been at the table for Section 6 bargaining, athough I played a role in the NJ IBB.

If you got to know me and my views, you'd see that while I lean pro-Union, I'm really not a kool-aid drinker. I just don't think that Unions are ALWAYS at fault nor that management is ALWAYS good. Nor do I believe absolutes in the opposite.

So were the Unions able to convince the courts at to their re-defining terms? Or is it perhaps the case that using the term "blackmail" was hyperbole and "not bargaining in good faith" overstatement? I mean, if those truly occurred, why not file suit(s)? Remember, we're talking about crimes and statutory violations, here.
 
Just setting the record straight.

You have so much hate in you man


Attacking me doesn't change you, sorry.

I don't have a shred of hate in me, and I didn't attack you. All I did was set the record straight after you needlessly spammed me in a bunch of threads.
