Oh, and things seemed to be going so well. (cough)

Contract negotiations between General Motors Corp. and the United Auto Workers reached a critical point Sunday as local union officials hoped for an agreement but prepared once again for a possible strike on Monday.

Leaders at factories across the country received conflicting reports out of Detroit Sunday afternoon. Several reported progress and optimism but said that if no agreement was reached Sunday night, the union would walk out Monday morning. A local in Arlington, Texas, however, told its members to report as scheduled Monday.

So, are they going to call a strike this morning? Maybe they will bargain for more negotiation time? Now that’s what you’re all paying them for, right?
