The other issue with Unions in scenarios like this is that it isnt just the 'Postal Workers' Union. Their Union represents a whole swathe of other groups of workers and so they want to set the precedent of rejecting the first offer out of principle.

So sure, the offer might have been great for the Postal Workers but thats not good enough for the Union itself.
