And as expected, bid 175 DFW

the meeting minutes should be out soon too if they already aren’t. It’s interesting after agenda item 25. Watered down some, but clearly there. Has some more growing up to do.

He’s young. He has a good heart though. Give him a little time and guidance and he will eventually make a good union volunteer. it takes a lot to put yourself potentially in managements cross hairs. He was willing to do that, most aren’t.
credit where credit is due.

username checks out :-)

On a more personal note Karim is the proper definition of scab. That kid fits right at PSA

Nah, we can find union volunteers that aren't totally self serving

The kid sounds like a real winner, but let us not cheapen the term. It has a very specific meaning in labor, and particularly in this industry. Did he cross a picket line or fly struck work? Then he is not a scab.

Granted! My understanding is that he was trying to lobby his upgrade with the company. Pretty damn close to being a scab.

Actually not close at all. He was trying to further his own career, can't fault him for that, everyone should try to get out of here as fast as they can. The way he did it however was not smart and shouldn't be back in a union position anytime soon. But definitely nowhere near a scab.

"Not smart"?
Understatement of the year right there.
Not a scab. But he likely would be given the opportunity. To "further his own career".

My sources tell me it really was that. No need to see conspiracies where none really exist.
