[QUOTE="Frankie's Friend, post: 3735275"] This doesnt really match the thread title but I've gotta post it here. In your life you really have just so many people that you know you can trust, that you may even call friend. This contract struggle is over several things but for many it's really based on a billion dollar word called [U]trust[/U]. Trust will get a marriage thru hard times. Trust will be the glue that bonds families. It bonds union brotherhood together. But it's based on truth and consistancy in relationships. What would you sell your brother out for? Power? Position? More money? The hollow pat on the back by people in power that dont really care about you? The feeling that now, finally, you are someone? That you fought for your personal agenda and said screw everyone else? The last cba was a prelude to this one. And here we are. Fighting to preserve our volume, existing full time jobs, and to raise the bar on union members being paid appropriately for the hard work they do as part timers. Today, for me, is the last of my posting. But i have not lost faith in the strength of American blue collar workers. I lost faith in something that put things in perspective for me. I asked cheryl to delete my account last week. I need to focus on family and my job. I wish she had...but I guess I'm glad tonite she didnt. It's bittersweet. Mostly bitter. USNY said this union is on life support when he (allegedly) left this site. I rarely agreed with him on anything but crookedness does bring weakness. Some folks need to ponder that truth. Fight the fight honestly. I'm with you and appreciate most all of you. Honest people will always prosper because they have truth and principle as their citadel. God bless you all. [/QUOTE]
