Well, the only thing I've seen from the XJ MEC since this whole merger thing is.....well, nothing. Every time the company has wanted give....it's happened. During contract negotiations, all we heard from that side was "Our MEC wouldn't stand for that. Just you wait." Well, it's put up or shut up time. So, far, it's like living in France. Every time there's a fight, we just give more ground. It's a damn good thing the company decided on their own to do the payroll stuff by hand. That was all supposed to be over and done with in Sept. No dice on that, and no pressure from the union side (any of the three) to make it happen. The company gives a "software issue" excuse, and I guess that's good enough for anything that involves a computer.
