Is their a law which states this or is it a agreement between the union and cwu. If so, i'm sure it can be broken like every agreement rm have made to the union.

December 24th would be a great day to strike.

This was the letter that they issued for the Christmas 2008 bonus - 2009 should be the same. It also kills the rumour about not striking before Christmas because they would not include the Official Action in the list of abatements if we could not strike.
