[QUOTE="AZBrown, post: 2843705, member: 36371"] You are spot on with both statements. As far as union meetings, we only have about 6 a year, because we have a statewide local, so the others are held in the other two "big cities." In my 5 years of going to meetings, I have gotten one member to attend a couple times, and that's because I picked him up along the way, however I think he would go on his own now if he wasn't a Sat air driver. As for the solidarity issue, I believe that the PT language is weaker than the FT language, which cause much discord and complaints about the job, and more so amongst each other. The largest group of PTers seems to be the younglings, which as we all know is a group who only care about the money, and they haven't seen examples of solidarity, and how it can bond a group. I would guess one would need small victories to show how using the language to our advantage would show people little by little, and get them to believe. [/QUOTE]
