[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5353602, member: 58386"] So what's your point? Fat Freddy and Sahib Raj have already made it clear that it will NOT negotiate with any collective bargaining entity . At the present time they don't have to. The only possibility of it happening is if TALP (lol) sues in court seeking collective representation rights forcing Fat Freddy to recognize TALP as a trade up with collective bargaining rights. About the only way yo acquire collective bargaining rights would be to become a trade union And that's if they get extremely lucky and win. Oh, and by the way if they lose....they'll likely have to pay court costs and Fat Freddy's expenses as well. In fact TALP would still have to gain the right to hold a vote among contractors seeking to become their bargaining agent. Acquiring said right will takes years and years and you don't know if they'll even gain a majority. In addition who's going to pay for all of this? Litigation expenses, election expenses will run into the millions, possibly tens of millions. Fat Freddy will simply run out the clock and Spencer Patton out of money. That's assuming that he chooses not to take the easy way out and simply allow Patton's contract to expire. [/QUOTE]
