[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 3775483, member: 8481"] I get where you're coming from and see your point of view. But, if the NNC thought that they could do better, and thought that UPS was willing to give up more, that is was not their final offer, why did they stop negotiating and send us the offer? They still had plenty of time left. I believe that the NNC knew this was the final offer from UPS, but didn't really inform anyone of the fact to have a card in their back pocket in case the vote did not go their way. Their "out" on this was that it is in the Constitution where every member can see it. They will take no responsibility for a member not knowing the Constitution. "Ignorance of the law is no excuse." Section 2(a) of the Constitution specifies what the offer is they send to the membership. Some may disagree, but it is right there in black and white. Upon completion of negotiations by any committee designated as hereinafter set forth to engage in negotiations of a master agreement, such agreement shall be submitted to the membership involved in such negotiations for their approval or rejection as the [B]final offer[/B] in accordance with Section 2(d) herein.
