Conveniently copying and pasting, taking out of context a few paragraphs from my collective sum of posts that demonstrate otherwise will not prove your point. I'm not company and I'm not in the training center either. I'm middle of the road Joe and if you don't think that the union and the company are both dragging their feet then your beer(union) goggles must be too tight.
I support my union but I will question union tactics when I feel that it is contradictory to our collective goal. I also support the employer that pays my bills but I will not allow them to walk over me with complete disregard for the CBA. What is wrong with living my life to that standard?
What's wrong with that "standard"?
Frankly, it's incorrect. That's what's wrong.
You seem to think you occupy some sort of "moral high ground" by not picking a side? Well, one thing is for sure, you're the victim of a sham and a screw job, but it's not coming from the union.
All, and I do mean all, of your frustration should be directed squarely at Purchase for gaming your profession. To the company you are merely a debit on left side of the financial statement. They are not your daddy paying your bills. You bring value to the company, much more than you're being given credit for, every month.
