[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 700142, member: 13921"] I heard a story about another union going through negotiations right now and threatening to strike on MPR the other night. Several labor relations people were interviewed and they pretty much agreed that no matter how "right" the union is in its demands that cause it to strike, during todays economy, public sentiment will side with the company. From a public relations point of view, the worst thing the mechanics could do right now, is call a strike. I completely understand that calling a strike is valid and the company has been being knuckleheads at the negotiating table. In today's economy, no one will see that. Here is what they will see, "A bunch of ungrateful bastards that are not happy that they have secure jobs." Don't shoot the messenger. [/QUOTE]
