[QUOTE="Cole, post: 201717, member: 9507"] Brother sometimes the brethren need to see unity in action, as seeing is believing. That means learning the contract, and sitting down with the folks and going over it, and organizing yourselves on how to deal with issues. A good example that to me anyway was from the somewhat old movie "The Right Stuff" about Chuck Yeager, and the first Apollo Astronauts etc...If you've seen it, then I am talking about when they built the "capsule" and had no input from the pilots that were to play it etc...and early on they had quite a bit of squabbling between them because they were vastly different, as some were straight edge, no drinking, carousing etc...and some were on the wild side, anyway, when it came down to the "capsule" they finally got united, and decided they should have some say, like having explosive bolts on the hatch, and other such. As they said "No Bucks, No Buck Rogers"! At that point they really stuck together to make improvements on the space craft. Our strength is in each other, and if we stick together we can [B]BE[/B] a union, rather than [B]just BEING in a union[/B]. That doesn't mean to thumb your noses at management every chance you get, but to respectivley and collectivley stand up for the principles of the contract, and doing a fair days work for a fair days pay, and remember your customers are your best friends out there, and even though some can be aggravating, but by giving them the service you would want, we are effectively securing our futures, and you never know when you may need a good word or three from them.:thumbup1: Have a good Memorial Day weekend all! Be safe, and enjoy your families! [/QUOTE]
