[QUOTE="Weather Man, post: 16958563, member: 137766"] Furman says the rationale behind the union's so-called "Stand Up" strategy is to strike select plants and keep the companies guessing. [LIST] [*]"(I)f we can keep them wounded for months they don't know what to do. The beauty is we've laid it all out in the public and they're still helpless to stop it." [*]"And creating compression points of national attention for them to do the right thing is way different than just waiting for a month for the next offer. Plus, we're breaking pattern and they're bargaining against each other for the first time in 70 years." [*]Instead of bargaining with one company to achieve a pattern deal that can be applied to all three Detroit automakers, Furman says the UAW aims to turn the companies against each other in a bid to secure the best deal for union members.
