To all concerned, I am one that recently said no to cx.
Current status , unemployed and getting more uncurrent everyday, however a number of short term options are coming to fro. Yes there is more than one job out there, but not the one I want. Lucky in two senses; have the right endorsement and have a big fat redundancy to live off for a while. But some people dont have the luxury that I have , given different curcumstances I may have been forced to say different. Add big mortgage, kids, wrong endorsement and the answer would have been different. A basic survival instinct comes before loyalty to a union. A good man becomes a scab ???? I know one that said yes, and he really is forced to . If the world excess is slowly absorbed as it seems it will, then no probs, but if not then more will cross as their situ changes. The union has bought some time but thats about it.
Frankg : its a bit hard to aviod the qu when asked directly:are you are willing to defy the ban.
