It will be public, it will be purposeful and the six grader will have zero control. There will be no showing the numbers, “no proving the furlough”, there will just be a giant furlough. I think a better relationship, a better tone, would have yielded significantly better results, but We said “No favors, No wavers, burn it to the dirt”, management is about to respond in kind. Maybe we would have arrived at this point no matter what, I really believe it’s the result of the #angry8, and #183/63. Maybe there is a great union victory ahead for us, many years from now. I have just never seen one of those, just a lot of rhetoric, a lot of talk. Many new faces, angry and vocal, promised to deliver such a victory, they said they had this. Seems maybe not as easy as they let on, maybe they are not as smart, not as capable as they so proudly once boasted.
