Wrong.
As far as representation goes, there is nothing currently stopping NW M/L from taking over the handling of OH.
On top of that, there is nothing stopping M/L from taking over the DL ramp work currently outsourced.
the comment referred to a definitive answer that will not happen while there are two separate employee groups at this time. when there is resolution, then that answer will be finalized, its just that simple.
So what are you saying? That they're holding this work over our heads as some sort of "carrot and stick" when it comes to a vote?
not at all, that is merely your own interpretation and certainly was not implied.
There's nothing to "resolve." Again, if they had no intention of giving NW M/L this work then they should not have sent out a letter to all of us.
that is where you are more than likely mistaken, you cannot receive a definitive answer on any issue until both groups are integrated or at least how it will be determined going forward after a combined SOC by resolving these issues.
they more than likely sent out a letter explaining their true intent to keep current Mainline stations, Mainline..had they not sent out a letter stating they will retain Mainline stations going forward.. then I would find that to be a concern..but that is not the case..
the definitive answer will come at the conclusion of all outstanding issues..
