[QUOTE="BrownRecycler, post: 3660154, member: 73454"] To be fair, I was reading this "authorizing a nationwide strike beginning midnight, August 1" When I said "The vote was about an authorization to strike not a vote to strike.", I meant that the vote was giving permission to strike not to strike at midnight of August 1. The author already made a mistake in his editing. News reported what was the authorization to strike meant and have explained it better than this author. However, I am not wrong about the author contempt for false pretense "in open defiance of a vote by more than 93 percent of the workforce". I can understand that the author busting our balls, but, seriously, it isn't about defiance. What worried more is riding out of an old contract while awaiting for the new contract. 2 months aren't indefinite but, if you want the contract done and correct. You sit, talk, write, record, discuss with your rep in separate session then adjourn, and day by day with set break time and rest with hydration to get contract done. Am more concern about the accuracy of journalism as accountability have went out the windows since day 1. If you are upset because of caution raised, you need to educate yourself of why people want straight answer and not water down editing. [/QUOTE]
