Thank you so much for the kind words.
I will be very honest with you, the unity is because this membership was soooo well informed about all the details from nego's hence the unity and large turn out and large no vote. All the members are well aware of how the company nego's were treating us as a group. Our economist also deserves kudos. He kept proving the co. wrong especially when the co. said they were not moving the date of the contract for any financial reasons, our economist proved that they would in fact be saving 37 million by moving it, and the co. finally admitted so to our economist. There were many more examples, but I will not bore you with them all.
Just wondering how the co. nego team looks to GK and all the upper officers after they told them that it will pass with flying colors and now they get the big no vote with almost 97% of the members voting, speaks volumes.
Hopefully the survey will be done early next month and we can get back to the table to adjust and or tweak the economics to a more reasonable one for the members to accept. I will update when we get more.
