[QUOTE=LuckyvsGood;3625227]there will never actually be a strike though. It’s just a formality, like ‘I’ll still respect you in the morning” “I would never treat you like that”. “ how do you know the baby is mine”. ​​​​​,[/QUOTN
Never say never. Be prepared.

The administration owes organized labor a debt after what they did to the railroad union. You never know.

It's high time the union gets to work letting the administration know about the company's plans to move more jobs overseas. These aren't $20/hr factory floor positions either.

It’s funny that you think the admin owes a “debt” to anyone that’s labor. Both sides only care about donors.

I hope y’all hit the % you need to get a strong show. It helped us.

25 minutes until you strike authorization vote closes.

Hope we hear the results right away.

I think that would be misplaying the hand.

If the results are strong, the NC chairman should quietly walk into the next negotiating session and show them to the company. Next, you give them a deadline to make a deal before you begin to distribute those results to FDX's biggest corporate customers.

More Tony Soprano and less Kim Kardashian.

From the Chair:

Over 97% participated.

99% in favor.

Well done.

Yea I just realized I didn't complete my post, before my kiddo grabbed the phone. The second sentence was going to be "Of course based on the strength of the results."
