And that is more from the fact that they have a great group of unionist already on the LEC. I don't give a rats ass who hired you, or when you were hired. We're all on the same list doing the same job. Want to pull the L XXX line, cool. Yank my gear and don't miss a radio call. Goes for either side. We all have a past. And it's that, the past.
You kind of made my point, that the only reason they could be elected were because of large amounts of LCAL or new guys, not because of LUAL votes. Look, you may not care about legacies but that does not mean you can bury your head in the sand either. No it should not matter, I think that is what we all want, and no side should be discriminated because of legacy. But we are not quite there yet.
