Everyone will say they don't want it but the proof will be in the voting. I'm spewing all this for THAT moment . . . mounting support for sending it back. We're at the same company and in the same union (which makes us on the same side), but I clearly want more than you. It'll take people like me to get it. You can thank us afterward.
Parking isn't really a fear yet; we're still in "give the company some slack" mode. Not sure why you brought it up (you can't be that scared already).
You’re clearly all about rate. I’ll give you that. But your lack of knowledge leads me to believe you’re willing to give up the farm on work rules. An example would be accepting pretty much any of the companies proposal so far. 4 credit vac, reduced sick, reduced guarantee, ect… so you’re willing to accept less. On work rules.
I’m positive I won’t be thanking you because you did nothing accept possibly voted no. You already mentioned that. Nothing last time not willing to get involved this time.
