A Northwest Question
Aug. 20th, 2005 05:52 pmWell, on the first day of the Northwest Airlines mechanics strike, a plane blew four tires while landing at Detroit Metro Airport. Thankfully, no one was hurt. But that, and a news story about the preparations for the strike, have me wondering something.
Northwest supposedly spent the last several months training replacement mechanics in anticipation of this strike. Ummm... why didn't they just give that money to the mechanics they already had, rather than ask wage concessions...?
