      No, it is binding, just neither of the parties agreed to send it to arbitration. Which I’d say is worse but arbitration always ends with an outcome that’s shitty for both sides.

        So what if they continue to refuse to work after that if the contract is bad? Police are going to force them to qork? Isn’t that slavery?
