Dean how did they do compared to the Elkview mine are they going to have to walk out for ten weeks to enjoy the same success the guys at Elkview did?
I am very glad to see this deal reached, hopefully it is accepted by both parties. If so it will show that labour disputes can be avoided if both parties have the "will". Also if it is successful being a local restaurant owner I hope to see some of these folks spending their bonus in the local establishments. Its been a long winter.
