unlike most of these guys none of them were even shop stewards or alternates stewards...at lease tony donato had the balls to run!!!! He is not afraid to get his hands dirty, stand up to united parcel and is willing to start all over to help his memebership....its still new and the memebership will see the devotation he has....
Where are you LONELY WOLF and OUTLAW!! I can't hear you!!!![]()
There is one person on this board who was never a steward or an alternate and one guy I dont know so I think using the word most shows how clueless you really are. I think your boy had his time to show his devotion and thats why he lost his spot at BA.The pension fund as of today is up approx 70 million dollars since these guys came in so it looks like its going in the right direction. It dont matter if you like em or not, they are your elected officials so deal with it. This thread is officially a waste of time.
It might not have been the right time for them to run for steward. AG and TD have been away from their centers for years as stewards. I can see the members in each center being loyal to the incumbent, nothing wrong with that. The real test is about a year away.
Ace, I don't know them very well but what I hear from friends is they both were very good at representing the membership as were others from row A
So why did they lose? Outlaw.. And don't blame it on REDMOND!
hey Tellthetruth it was because of Redmond , I know they were good BA's , but I feel the put there life in Howies hands. Angelo and Tony are way way better BA.s then any one we have on our board now by a long shoot, the members voted Tim vs Howie nothing more. Half of the BA on the board now are very bad and I'm sure Tim knows it. Hope there going to a lot of classes but what you need to learn to be a good BA comes with time , I just dont know if the members can wait that long..and I hope Tim doesnt either.

I hope that you are not trying to say that Tim didn't need the guys he ran with... Out of the 13 buildings we have maybe 2 of them knew Tim... Didn't he run twice before and lost.. I think that the way the slate was built, was the key... Everyone on that slate was popular in the building they came from.. Especially the ones who are from the feeder dept. They were talked about and seen on the night and day operations in all the buildings. They all bring something to the table. Any even if Tim was not pleased with them now.. Its too late..They are elected. The one thing that I do hear alot is that Tim needs to dress the part and stop looking like a Hill Billy.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAYou are ****ing me. Two of them are from my building and NO they were not popular. YOU don't get it. The members didn't vote for row b because of their qualifications they voted for CHANGE and boy Ohhhh boy are they getting what they asked for. Hey any info on that vote. NO BECAUSE IT NEVER HAPPENED.
Ace! That is not what I heard about the steward election. I did hear about a flyer but it wasn't from the steward. And of course they are going to wait another year.. I guess the money and clout is worth letting the union burn just to get a chance at running in another year..hey Outlaw your a Queens boy , I'm a Brooklyn boy. I got a phone call from a buddy of mine from Mespeth that Tim was walking around there thursday with a steward from Manhattan South building looking very BA type ,isnt that your building? any word about that? Also here the steward that TD ran against put out a flyer about TD that killed him. TD may wait another year and try again.
