That way anyone who WANTS a VIL line can have one voluntarily, and the bottom of the list gets 50 hours + benefits instead of a pink slip.

Stop negotiating in public with the concessions you are willing to give.

You’re missing the best part - being admitted to a field hospital in Central Park instead of being sick at home.
With ya brother. In TX I’ve got enough beans, bullets, and bandaids to settle in for a while. In the Kew? Maybe a Louisville Slugger and a number 1 eat up box? If you really wanna do it up right get some barbed wire and wear the banned JB leather jacket to get the Negan look.

That's negotiating in public. Take your ideas to the union

The REAL Bluedriver

You all had no problem with me suggesting giving up Lift Awards and the potato farm in public.

yes, perfect re-use of the leather jacket. 100 Neegans dragging suitcases in the Kew. What a statement.
