Your right I don’t care about slope, scope, or commutable trips. I wouldn’t give up a dollar an hour for all three. Our union sucks! Check back in three years we will have no slope no change to commutability of trips, maybe scope. This is a pretty good company and a great place to work!
Dude if you think one guy, not in union leadership, saying something obvious but in no way calling for a job action constitutes grounds for a lawsuit, you’re out of your mind. The UNION has to suggest a job action not just some random poster on a public message board.
But, the rest of your statement is perfectly clarifying. You clearly either don’t trust the union to have your back, (understandable given the past) OR, you’ve decided that it wouldn’t matter if they did, you’re unwilling to leverage your position for contract that would benefit anyone but you. I sincerely appreciate that level of candor. At least you’re honest about it.
FTR....I never said it’s not a pretty good company, or that that it wasn’t a great place to work. I agree with both statements. It could be better. Hopefully we’ll get there without ya. 😉
