[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1106224, member: 24302"] No, I just know when to fight and when to cut my losses. Ranting on this forum isn't fighting. If you want to organize, go right ahead. Who's stopping you? But let's be truthful about the chances. Have you ever stood up to a director in a station meeting, telling him pay policies are unfair to midrange employees? That director suggested twice after the meeting that if I'm unhappy why don't I just leave? Are you still taking the SFA? I haven't the last two years and tell them I no longer participate because of what they are doing to us in midrange. I turned down a 10 year safe driving award last week, told my mgr I need better pay, they can keep all that other stuff. I haven't accepted an award in close to 8 or 9 years if I remember right. And told them why every time. Used to have a mgr who wanted to shake hands when she gave everyone their paychecks. Several weeks after transferring there I started refusing. Said it violated my conscience to do so. Made her mad. When we had a real chance to get out of the RLA I was talking about the benefits of getting a union for two years. Got plenty of looks and a few questions from mgrs. Difference between me and you is you want to control the message on our side. We must all be in lockstep together. That sounds an awful lot like the other side. I refuse. Want me to join "your" revolution? Show me we have the gov't and union backing that we absolutely must have in order for this to work. Until then this is just a bunch of chest thumping that's going absolutely nowhere. [/QUOTE]
