I think what dera is trying to say is that no one takes any of you seriously due to the sheer amount of high-drama screeching on this forum.

If you guys were able to dial it back and provide rational, factual responses instead of just fantastical whining, calling each other ball-washers, and showing that many of you don’t have the faintest understanding of how unions work, people may actually listen to what you have to say.

I, for one, don’t have the patience to wade through it. I’ve got multiple CJOs and instead of the actual discussions I find elsewhere, the tone of this place is such a damned mess that it’s all just noise and you come across as a vocal minority of agitators in a vacuum.

Have some real conversations instead of just egging each other on. Then you may see the results you want.
