NJ contract

[DadofSeven]

Just a quick question for the NJ guys. I was on the IBT website and some clown said that the current NJ contract was being recinded or being forced to be re-negociated. Is that even possible? Are things that bad over there? I though you guys maded money the first quarter.

Rescinded? :laugh: No, it's not being rescinded or under some kind of "forced" renegotiation. The clown in question is indeed a clown. It's a contract, and short of the company entering Chapter 11 (not likely), neither side can simply change the terms.

Our current contract has the option of a 3-year extension. It's entirely at the company's discretion to extend it, provided they meet some criteria spelled out in the contract. If they choose not to, or don't meet the criteria, then we'll enter normal bargaining just prior to our current contract's amendable date. But until a new contract is signed, this one is in full force. Not sure where your clown got his information, but it's way off.

I have no idea what's really going on; they don't tell us much these days.

Apparently no one except the top level NJA execs know what's going on................. We've got someone who cannot confirm or deny any rumors are true....Just that "we've" not been told anything..How's that for rumor control!!

Hope that clarifies the current NJA happenings:beer:

I have forgotten the criteria..... Do you remember what was required to extend it? I thought it was simply the combining of operations?

If they haven't met the criteria, the 2012 contract date could be another motive for the company to be such pains in the rear at the moment.....and not be forthecoming with "certain" important career info.....

just another in a long line of theories!!
