[QUOTE="Frankie's Friend, post: 3628911"] The company's offer was their last ditch effort to break the strike. The pension had already lost over 600 million dollars in the 1st 7 months of the year. The reason Ron matched the amount was because he figured the members would not have enough back bone to turn down the extra $1000. The company started this fight and blew a big hole into a ship that was just barely floating at $2000 a month. Hopefully this contract wrestling does not precipitate the same greed that sunk the pensions in 97 because a rubber band only stretches so far. [/QUOTE]
