It is telling that group have yet to meaningfully live up to their mandate-“to move forward”. I hope someone within their chamber ranks realize their tactics are not helping. If results matters to that group, I think it does, then they would realize they need to change the way they organize, approach topics, disseminate information and incorporate good reach out methods that will increase their fold. Change is hard and it is always easier to ask the other guy/gal to go first.

Nope they were pretty much Big Mac extra value meals. What about the so important phone call TC had to take right when the meeting started yesterday? He had a call from Trump or Elon? Totally pre meditated bull**** move.

According to the Positive Rate, at least part of this "rumor" is true.

The part that said there was a meeting, and that they lost a quorum and ADJOURNED (not cancelled) the meeting was absolutely true. All the other stuff being spread through here and social media is impatience, speculation, company misinformation being intentionally spread, and sometimes just flat out ignorance.

Why did the lose quorum? Because TC had some incredibly important phone call he just had to take. Like I said a bunch of BS.

The BS is from you. When he took the phone call, there was still a quorum. While he was talking, another MEC member had a family emergency and had to leave, and that was caused the loss of the quorum.

I agree it could have been handled better if the person with the family emergency could have yelled at TC to come back into the room to preserve the quorum, but that didn't happen and I don't know why.

I don't know why they could not have had a "recess" or "pause" the meeting for a few moments until TC got off the phone, but I don't make the rules.

You are blaming TC for the lack of a quorum, but it was the family emergency that caused it, so quit your BS.

I've got a bridge to sell you. The absolute thinest of excuses. Don't act like this was Tony's first meeting, they knew what they were doing.

Whole stunt was pre organized. Right up TC alley. Keep buying into their BS games.

If they would work as hard at getting a contract as they do with their games we would have had an industry leading contract last summer.

Why was a “special” meeting even required? These guys should all be on the same page for negotiations and communications. We’re ALL a bunch of clowns. We’ve been getting clowned since 2020 when this company made BILLIONS and we had our thumbs up our a$$es think how much money we were making. That was the time to take action BUT we couldn’t even keep extra pay going into China. F-ing pathetic. This group is a bunch of ignoramus buffoons.

Let the canned laughter continue for another 2 years as we lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost wages and the time value of money repeatedly kicks us in the nutter butter bars.
