I'm curious what you've read/heard/seen that leads you to believe these guys are being asked to spread their cheeks?
All I've heard is that the current agreement is about to expire, and they're not together on the new deal.
It is fact that the UAW had to take a pay cut, but I'll suggest the outragous packages they've leveraged over the companies the past few decades have partially put those same companies in the situations they currently face. I know quite a few guys in different construction related unions, and I can see why they think its a good thing for them as an employee. I've also worked as a "scab" while in HS on a site where an "operator" wouldn't get off of his machine to move something out of his way, and sat for 15 minutes until a laborer showed up to move it.
