[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 223880, member: 1912"] [COLOR=blue]agreed. My gut instinct tells me this one will be one of the most complicated negotiations ever. bailing CS will not be easy and I guess its why UPS feels they need to pause to talk to CS directly. If this were the standard type negotiations I think we could have been done already. But buying out pensions will muck up the works and slow down the process considerably. I think its past the normal lets have a strike vote in august ok you guys scared us type program run in the past. This one will take a lot of time due to the complexities involved. When the final proposal hits the press we will then have much to pour through and analyze.
