[QUOTE="Fredless, post: 284097, member: 5197"] You sound like a feeder driver that was at one of my local meetings and started screaming at the part time preload steward when he raised questions to the president of the local about the contract and expressed how difficult it was going to be to sell the union to the new hires. The guy totally flipped out and went on blah blah blah..I think that jackass was one of the reasons why our local, comparitively, had a pretty high percentage of a no vote. Feeders/old timers and management got their way. Screw everyone else, and screw the unborn. Speaking from personal experience, it is very difficult to sell the union and ESPECIALLY difficult to get the part timers to care about the union. But thats fine, you guys got to retire. So I guess the future of the organization doesn't matter..you guys got your money and its the unborn's fault that you relied on a promise to you by a company that constantly breaks promises. I guess it was too hard to learn from: The steel industry the railroad industry the government job pensions going away the airline industry the auto industry. But whatever, you guys had your day in the sun so piss on everyone else. [/QUOTE]
