[QUOTE="bear123, post: 244923, member: 5196"] Ditto on that too. As someone else said, if a signing bonus is offered, the pt'ers will take the money and run and that is exactly what the company is hoping. It will now depend on the union if they want to sell us out as they did in 1982. I remember on the last contract, HOffa declared "Compromise is out of the queston." Let's see if he sticks to that statement this time. What is confounding is why not only the company but also the union is bending over backwards to make sure we hit the Oct. 1 deadline. What is it about this date anyway. I know it is the anniversary thing but so what. Remember we have till next August to have this contract finished and done right. What scares me is I wouldn't be surprised if this is already a done deal. Why would they break off negotians now to do the supplements when there is so much to do on the main level. I mean, supposedly the union and the company is far apart, regarding issues. Do they think they will get everything done in one week. I guess we will see, when Oct 1 comes along. Let's see if the union stands by their slogan, "Oct 1 or we're done." [/QUOTE]
