[QUOTE="Stonefish, post: 1210197, member: 50401"] So you stopped filing grievances when management quit? Doesn't make sense. Everything just got better? If you were doing such a great job settling grievances by yourself why did they have to get filed in the first place? Your BA should be settling a grievance once they are filed. As far as your BA allegedly trying to get you fired for not supporting Obama did you do anything about it? I would love to know what local that was in. If you ever had a chance to negotiate a contract you would have a totally different outlook when the responsibility of thousands of members not just a select few employees in one center. You never have to let anyone walk all over you but to say you or your coworker got screwed without being in negotiations and knowing what actually happened is an injustice to all of those involved and trying to do the right thing by the membership. Maybe what happened those people actually protected the future of you and the employees in your center. The contract does not suck you just didn't get everything you wanted. That's why they call it negotiations. I never said a word about TDU they have their right to their opinion. I don't have to agree with it. If you were at UPS in 97 I can not recall them ever saying a bad thing about him. I am in no way saying the current administration is perfect but I do think they do the best job possible with the state of the economy, the fact that the majority of members do not go to meetings, do not help in organizing drives, do not get involved in politics to get rid of the politicians who support anti union legislation, etc. The local i am in is a good local if yours isn't you shouldn't blame that on the IBT. You can feel they let you down i don't. It is hard enough to organize it doesn't help when people say the union is constantly screwing them. [/QUOTE]
