This contact is presently frozen until a CBA is ratified. The story is just beginning.

Droptanks,
So let me see if I have this straight. For years, you union guys were claiming the current (and all previous) agreements were not "legal", yet now you actually claim that they are. Could it be that the WPPA/ALPA people were spreading false information all along?
For those who were duped into believing that union line of BS in the first place, I suggest you keep close tabs on what you are being told from here on in. Be skeptical.

I never claimed that the agreement wasn't legal or binding in any way. I'm not a lawyer and don't know the intricacies of contract law. What I DO know thanks to common sense knowledge of labour law in this country, is that a contract negotiated by a certified union IS legally binding WITHOUT QUESTION. I'm much more comfortable with an ALPA negotiated contract than with a yellow union agreement. That being said, it seems that the law has determined that our current agreement is frozen AND binding for the time being. In fact GGG said as much time and time again so it amazes me that he's trying to contravene the very agreement he swore was legally enforceable.
As far as your "union line of BS goes"...well my BS meter has been on vacation since the WJPA email propaganda stopped rolling in. Damn thing almost exploded when one of MY so-called reps was lobbying my government AGAINST labour rights in this country!!!
There it goes, BS meter just blew.
