I hope their union is happy. But they will just blame big bad business, as usual. For all the talk of ‘compromise’, they are the LAST ones to do their ‘fair share’. And this is what it gets them. Choke on it.
There was an airline where the flight attendants were negotiating their first contract. The company came to them with an incredible first offer that included a huge pay raise, better work conditions, all sorts of positives but the union said, “Nooooooo...we NEVER take the first offer.”
So several years later, the flight attendants signed the original offer. If I worked there, I would find some way to sue the union to recoup those lost years.
