Yes I have. Talked a couple weeks ago in the lounge. When did you?

Just wait for management to come to us, which they aren’t, is ignoring that there is a problem.

Guys, negotiations are a marathon. We havent even started jogging. Youve got years ahead of you, three at least.

Take some deep breaths, we are here for decades, this isnt the last cycle youll see. This current contract isnt going anywhere, youve got 3 years or more to another one. Hit a stride for me, alright?

Monday.

Management wants changes. My rep agreed with my position that we are better off leveraging its value in section 6, using it to achieve significant improvements across the entire contract. Signing additional LOAs and MOUs to address management’s needs only undermines our bargaining position at this point.

Additionally, as I’ve said 100 times already, management isn’t even adhering to the MOU that they already agreed to.

Cool. Your info is more up to date than mine. And if that’s the case, then the reps are on it.
Still doesn’t mean it’s the massive leverage you think it is. Because my reps I was talking to said it is, but not as much as the loudest people think it is…

Several million per month offers more leverage than any other unexpected contractual win in recent history. Where else do you think comparable leverage will be coming from? Lanyards and pickets? The scary lady in Raleigh, 3-4 years down the road?

I just don’t think we have the leverage you think we do. Does not mean I’m not going to push for the contract we deserve.

Default Promises?

I don’t understand where some of you keep standing behind the company’s “promise” to implement QS?

im pretty near certain that won’t come before a TA because they know how much it divides us as a group

but can anyone of you “PRO” MOU people can show me where the company completely, swiftly, or correctly fulfilled a promise in this decade I’ll eat crow and start supporting it myself

That’s not subjective. It’s a quantifiable, growing amount.

In your view, what is our greatest piece of leverage going into the next round?

Management's greatest piece of leverage comes from reading APC
