[QUOTE="Cole, post: 254374, member: 9507"] One why don't you step up to the plate, and run against this person? Also, get the facts and pass them out, and the steward will lose all credibility if you're correct, and he backs a weak contract. I just finished reading the tenative agreement, and I have to admit I am too tired to grasp alot of the Atty talk. I can however; say the new hires are getting reamed and no use of vasoline was negotiated. More often than not it defers to various supplements etc...and we all know a supplement can take away everything gained in the Nat'l that doesn't state specifically that is "supercedes all language on the subject etc... Now for an 8 hr request instead of 24 hrs notice you are required 5 days, and there is some penalty pay, but that is precipitant on "conditions beyond the company's control". Also serious changes to excessive o/t language, and I am too tired to remember specifics. My computer has been messed up and I just got back online tonight, so I am trying to decipher the new language best I can at this time. I'll print it tom and give a better opinion. Oh yeah, now there seems to be more bogus committee's for about everything, so expect the same minute amount of justice along with these new committee's. There's *seemed* to be some good language, but I'll have to rest and study it more thoroughly after work tomorrow night. I just have a feeling the result of this contract has been in motion since Hoffa lite first ran for office. Take that for what it's worth, because it is my opinion. As far as looking out and educating new members etc...nothing keeps us the informed members from stepping up to the plate, and now is the time to show the younger folks what's happening and why. We can't afford to make exscuses as to why we didn't. As a rule I have always been taught and followed, [b]Never[/b] vote yes for the first offer! [/QUOTE]
