Work Stoppage!

It's official! It has finally happened and it's set for Wednesday, July 6, 2005 starting at 10:00PM. It's one day before the supposedly "final" meeting at the bargaining table between the union and the company. I have to say that I'm a little disappointed that it wasn't earlier because I had to work the whole holiday weekend. Oh well, it's not a bad date considering the union will have significant leverage in the negotiations and we'll also at least know if the company will agree by Friday. Keeping my fingers crossed... -Cecil

Add-on: Ah, I just realized too that payday is on Wednesdays. Any work stoppage prior to that day would mean the company can withhold our paychecks from us. Ingenious.
