FDX-Interim Elections in blocks 1 & 4
I hope everyone is enjoying the 4th in proper fashion... I mean, of course not the SIG/PSIT boys who are yet again building our bid packs on a national holiday! Don't worry, as this happens at least 3-4 times a year!
More pressing matters sailing by unnoticed are elections on Wednesday to replace the blocks 1 & 4 status reps. Yeah, 2 of 12 elected leaders being replaced with a simple majority present voting... Wanna guess how many show up? If past practice is any indication, 7-8 guys will determine the outcome for the 900+ LEC members eligible to vote.
The even better news is that 2 holdovers from the DW era are chomping at the bit to get back in... They want to lead us back to the past days of parking lot deals, buried city purity concession side deals, FDA LOA1, and more!
So, if you long for the return to the DW days, do nothing and let 2 of his vast minions (CB&TH) slide in unopposed, with their 6 closest friends casting the winning ballots.
Then again, if you give a rat$ a$$ about the direction of our union and do not want a return to the worn out days of the past, show up at the union offices on Kirby Pkwy at 1100 on July 6. All members in good standing in blocks 1,4,8 can vote.
