The decision on the alliance flying is way over due. As with the other two arbitrations, I believe that when a decision goes against a company, the arbitrator takes a much longer time to render a solution than if it went against the union for obvious reasons. I could be wrong but given the delay on the last two grievances, it seems to play out that way. Being a Polaroid with a financial interest in the outcome, it may be only wishful thinking but I am keeping my fingers crossed.
I also hope this armistice as you call it last longer and becomes the standard. Both groups are really going to need it and soon, for when a decision does come down somebody is going to get hurt if we don't band together.
