[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1354426, member: 28388"] When you're filing grievances, you should be adding the line "and all others" or "and all others that apply" after you cite the article you're grieving under. Assuming you do/did this, your BA would have added any applicable article if you didn't cite the best one for the situation. If the BA dropped the grievance as no article violated one of two things happened. Either 1) he heard additional information which made him decide there wasn't enough merit in your grievance or no article was violated or 2) your grievance was dropped to gain traction on more pressing/important issues. As with negotiating a contract it's a give and take and you sometimes have to give up some minor issues to win more important victories. As an example, last peak we had a pile of supervisor working grievances here and there over the holiday season. In order to get them paid we dropped a specific grievance where higher level management was out shuttling late air on Christmas Eve day (all union drivers were on the road including air drivers getting paid ground rate).
