How much clearer can Mr. Welch be that there is a "Plan B"?!

Welch said he is not worried about the union’s lack of an opinion on the proposal. Even under the terms of the new deal, Welch said, the pay and benefits at the company would remain among the best in the industry.
“It’s a situation that we believe we can sell to our employees,” Welch said. “These are still some of the best jobs in the (less-than-truckload) industry.”
YRC issued a release Monday saying that the company will save “approximately $100 million” annually through the proposed agreement “and other corporate initiatives.” The majority of those savings would have been realized “if the agreement would have been put in place at the beginning of 2013.”
