[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 719582, member: 24302"] Valid points, but the argument for RLA status has always been to avoid crippling the whole system with local wildcat strikes. A national strike doesn't come out of the blue, can be anticipated based on negotiations. Again, while we will vote for/against the union locally, strikes are national in scope. And again, we aren't the dominant transportation system the railroads were in the late 1800's. The only reason the RLA designation was sought for by FedEx was to keep a union out. By the way, RLA or not, FedEx has had every opportunity to pay us better but instead they have taken every opportunity to restrict pay. And what could possibly stand in the way of them continuing to do so? Hmmm... [/QUOTE]
