Teamsters, DPA2 minus the drama, something has to be viable.
I'll call it right now: The TA is going to pass in a huge way, and this DPA drive is going to fail in a similarly huge way. Hopefully Timmy finally puts up and shuts it down.

Results are in, close the polls. Enuf discussion, 80 has called it!

You may be right but I had to rattle the mods cage, a little. I do hope the membership stays engaged. The Moak doctrine and its advocates won't go away. Can one want real change at DALPA and not be a hardcore DPA advocate looking for an alternative? Union should mean peer advocacy and brotherhood (is that sexist?) not a dictatorial old boys club where membership is mandatory for funding purposes only.

Ban hammer?

If so just let me know if the eye roll emoji was what put it over the top.

Don't forget elections this fall too. I don't think Malone is running again, or several good reps. Beware the Maokists, they plot as you read this post.

There, that should incite a riot. My work here is done.

Rattle my cage? Ban hammer? For what? Nothing you wrote was inflammatory or even began to rustle any jimmies.

I was really only partially responding to your post in reality- the DPA is done, and this TA is going to pass in a huge way. Just calling it as I see it.

I agree with you in regard to the elections this fall. We have to stay engaged and keep/put the right people in positions.

What's the over/under on 'nope'? He has a vendetta to settle.
