[QUOTE="Frankie's Friend, post: 3787145"] I have to say that when the company brought out multiple page "offers" to the strike lines they depicted performance based compensation and HMOs it didn't help their case. They wanted more subcontracting and there's no way they would have agreed to create thousands of full time jobs without the work stoppage. We know the pension was the main stumbling block in 97 but even though I was a newer employee I got the message the hourly wanted to personally send back to the company... "We don't trust you and how you treat us is the reason why". From what I saw, that's the glue that created the solidarity the world witnessed. The customers already knew the daily stress on us from the company and they sucked it up and stood with us. A couple years of allegedly being "self directed" did not wipe out the memory of many years of harassment. [/QUOTE]
