If I decided today to become a Seventh Day Adventist Could I/Should I be able to circumvent the CBA to accomodate by refusing to work on the sabbath? I think Dera makes a good point that what the attorney in this case is making a poor argument.

Has a reader learned anything from his post? Is anyone better off from his posting? Can his words have unintended consequences? Then perhaps it would be better to have not written anything. To write something disparaging to any party is to paint all parties with that brush. I don't know what I should be more surprised about. That a fellow union member would white an opinion such as his? Or that said member would not acknowledge that his words may have unintended consequences?

Regarding the latter, it brings me to the conclusion that the writer intended to cast dispersions on his union brothers. To what end is only a guess but I come down on the side of him wanting to feel superior, perhaps because of insecurities in his personality.

In response to what the pilots asked for? They asked for the freedom to make a decision on taking a medication that at the given deadline had no Federal or State mandates in effect. Why everyone doesn't support this effort is beyond me.

It does appear that at this time that they may lose in this effort to be made whole. Should we celebrate this?
