[QUOTE="Stonefish, post: 1241017, member: 50401"] I agree the bonus is not the way to go because you only get it one time and they take taxes out of it. A raise is there for your length of service and you get o/t one it. The problem with the situation is people don't care unless it affects them. As a steward I would ask someone to write a statement for supervisor working, harassment or whatever and they don't want to get involved then it happens to them and they expect everyone to help them out. We should all work together as a UNION not every person for themselves. I myself will be a retiree at some point so I would love to see pension increases and not pay for healthcare but the reality is you have to make the people that vote happy, retirees don't vote and a contract that doesn't have something for the active members won't pass. If you voted yes or no doesn't really matter to me as long as you are educated about the entire situation when you vote. I voted yes because in my opinion I am looking at the future and the futures of the people I work with. The negotiations are not just as simple as some may think. It is just my opinion and people don't have to agree. [/QUOTE]
