Strong , 393 U.S. 357, 36061, 89 S.Ct. 541, 21 L.Ed.2d 546 (1969), the NLRB regularly interprets CBAs in deciding allegations of unfair labor practices. Id . at 361, 89 S.Ct. 541 ; NLRB v. C&C Plywood Corp. , 385 U.S. 421, 428, 87 S.Ct. 559, 17 L.Ed.2d 486 (1967). When reviewing NLRB orders, see 29 U.S.C. 160(e)
