If it has been decided, it isn't out yet. I very seldom buy "the word on the street". Both grievances have been heard and the Nov 6th briefs have been submitted, so I would not be surprized if there is a decision.
I have two thoughts on grievances, the longer it takes for a decision the better it is for the plantiff. Usually it means a significant penalty for the company and the arbitrator is much more careful in making a decision that could cost the company a lot of dollars. That is what the Holden thing is all about now, money and jobs. That has been my experience anyway.
As for spin, what is there to say, it is either good, or bad, depending on who's side you are on. As I mentioned before, what is, is and that is it. Spin is only to make the bitter pill of the loser go down easier and, for one, am not going to get into that game.
