[QUOTE="gandydancer, post: 262853, member: 9310"] I didn't return the survey, which was purile. But I wouldn't have minded putting pensions/H&W above GWI. (And I voted against Hoffa.) This business of saying that we got what we asked for is nonsense, tho. Saying that H&W/Pensions was a higher priority than wage increases doesn't authorize the union to give away the store in every other area. The starting point for each contract ought to be that no one should do worse under the new contract than they would have done under the old one: every economic number should be adjusted for inflation, and the problems in the non-economic language that resulted in our not getting what we thought we'd negotiated should be fixed. Then, if the company's done well we can take the additional value we can extracrt from them and apply it according to our expressed priorities. But let's not leave anyone behind. I hope we'll vote NO on this contract and let the union know they weren't authorized to do that. [/QUOTE]
