He’s composing a letter directly to you right now. I’m sure he’s sorry for being a day late.

Hopefully we hear something soon, should be getting our picket scheduled.

I will say, 30 days over the holidays is basically nothing. I am not surprised it isn't ready yet. But read the MEC meeting email about their opinion.

I don’t really care about the MECs opinion. Matter of fact I don’t think anyone is in a rush in union leadership. It’s practically like a vacation for them.

They should have never canceled the picket. If anything they should have left it and said you have 29 days or whatever amount of time between talking with JD and the original date to come up with something. If that isn’t a good enough answer they could have moved it to a day after the 30 days to put the pressure on. But in reality it seems no one has a single brain cell in this union leadership to have any forward looking ability to see that nothing and I mean NOTHING is going to change. JD has been here how many years? You’re telling me the guy doesn’t or didn’t know what was happening before. GMAFB

Have you called your reps or sent a dart about it? instead of b****ing on here?

That talking point is a bit disingenuous. There isn't a dart on the planet that is going to impede the QOL program MM has set for himself and those that surround him.

Exactly why I didn’t respond to the stupid comment above.

I'm still completely flabbergasted by the misdirected anger.

The company is stonewalling negotions and you guys are mad at the union. It's embarrassingly ignorant.

The union is trying to get us a new contract, the company is trying their best to not. It's that simple.
