Been negotiating since May 12th and all they have to announce is a partial agreement on 1 issue. BFD
They are so proud of themselves that they have to announce every little thing they do, but of course there are no details.
Would not surprise me to hear the Union tell their members, they have to wait until they ratify before they can find out the secret details.
The rest of the agreement, mostly dealing with steady men bump pay, should not take that long, but who knows with Big Bob and his clown circus.
Chug, chug, chug……..
