[QUOTE="stray, post: 4017765, member: 57407"] No worries, my friend - sorry if I came across bitter. It is actually at a community college nearby (less than 10 minutes from our hub). Our hall isn't large enough to accommodate a large turnout, we often rent a local fire hall for proposal meetings, contract explanations, etc. I do not deny that there is likely an agenda to discourage the high turnout that we saw on the last vote. However my opinion is that, there are some things in life that we have NO control over, and that sucks. This, we do have control over and, if it matters to you, you will show up and vote. I have heard every excuse and complaint, some of which are valid like those who work Saturday, whether for UPS or somewhere else. We have employees on house arrest who are permitted to go to UPS M-friend but will not be permitted to make it to vote tomorrow, that's on them. Others have a variety of excuses but I find it interesting that many of these people still find the time to call or text me after every monthly meeting they can never attend, tomorrow will be no exception. I drive an hour to my hub and will drive that far tomorrow to vote, and will be staying half of the day to be an observer. Also, there is some confusion regarding the meeting prior to voting. These will be held every two hours, but will not take two hours. They will read the proposed changes, answer any questions, then members can vote - should only take 15 minutes or so, depending on how many questions/comments there are. [/QUOTE]
