How many times do we have to reiterate this?.... "WE" can't pull down anything. The MEC can. Do you trust them??? Well if you do then you're a fool because elections are coming up and we don't even know who it will be. If the company likes the idea don't think they won't try and pull some sort of "horse trade" that the MEC can't pass up. "Here's an extra dime in perdiem for allowing us to continue this.... don't worry we'all never take advantage of it like that....oh wait" or "here's some 4th floor jobs for you if you let us continue this". If you don't think this can happen you are naive.

People have said over and over again I want my money in my name in an account nobody else can touch...... so why are we so quick to allow the MEC and company to decide our QOL, scheduling, pay, commute status, etc??????? If you really think the union and the MEC has acted solely in your best interest and not National's, their own, or the company's in the past decade, then you are living under a rock. Even if they were it will not be the same folks deciding this 12 months from now. I may be new but without a vote there is way too much room here for manipulation.

"Well.... we never thought they would do that.....". Does that sound familiar to anyone???
