I think they're going to provide five more weeks of data.

You're welcome, person who somehow thinks labor and management are the same.

It is possible to understand that there may be ways to comprehensively improve an unfortunate situation, ways that are not being pursued, and to simultaneously understand and sympathize with the inequities created by that situation, for individuals who have no independent ability to rectify those inequities…
