[QUOTE="Braveheart, post: 250748, member: 5831"] I think it has a lot to do with the fact that when we all started as part timers we stuck it out and all of us were there 4 to 8 years. Now they all quit in their first couple years and some in the first couple months. They have no backbone, no leaders, nothing to lose or gain in their eyes because they just started or are just about to quit. The part timers looked at the raises going up to $1 plus 5 years ago and that was it. If we want to keep getting a new loader every 6 months and part timers who will not help us enforce the contract like supervisors working then keep being selfish. But if we put things into the contract to retain the part timers and give them things to aspire to and things to fight for like more full time jobs, combo and so forth, then I think we will be a stronger union and we will all win and prosper. Do we all forget that most of us were part timers at one time. [/QUOTE]
