I just wish they would spend some of the time and money it takes to put together those power point presentations on organizing the non-union companies. I can’t believe the amount of smoke they will blow up our asses to drive home a bad deal. OPPS, make that another bad deal. Just when you think it can’t get any worse, BOOM !!! THEY DROP A BIG SHIT BOMB ON YOU… NO,NO,NO…

Well, Gonzo did his homework and he’s right. They all must go along with this contract, and we might be able to save 40 years of contract language that these cowards have over looked.

As we all here in Local 89 know Fred is for Fred. His supporters are the one’s he gave jobs to in the Hall as BA’s.
Ask them at the Hall about their paycut’s & only going to get to draw 1 retirement check LOL.

EXCELLENT POST, AGREE 100%, IT’S GOING TO TAKE A LOT TO GET THIS DEAL TURNED DOWN, THERE IS SO MUCH BAD IN THIS DEAL, READ YESTERDAY, IF YOUR LAID OFF YOU ONLY GET 3 DAYS TO RESPOND AND I THINK 3 DAYS TO SHOW UP, THEN THEY ADDED A SECTION IF YOU TELL THE COMPANY THAT YOU WANT TO SHOW UP ON THURSDAY, THEY CAN TELL YOU NOT TO SHOW UP UNTIL THE FOLLOWING MONDAY, INFACT IF THEY CALL YOU BACK TUESDAY, THEY CAN TELL YOU TO SHOW UP ON MONDAY, THEN FOR 4 DAYS THEY CAN BACKHAUL THE CRAP OUT OF YOUR TERMINAL;,ALSO IF YOU DON’T SHOW UP YOU WILL BE FIRED, FRED NEEDS TO GO AS WELL AS HIS SIDEKICK BUZZY HOW MUCH OF A RAISE HAS FRED GOT THE PAST 5 YEARS? WHEN ALLIED LOST THE TOYOTA BUSINESS IN LOUISVILLE, THEY ONLY SO MANY DRIVERS, FRED TOOK ONE OF THE SPOTS , I DON’T THINK HE HAS EVEN HAULED A LOAD, BUT HE BEAT ANOTHER DRIVER OUT OF A JOB HAULING TOYOTA’S. MAYBE WE ALL SHOULD GET A PETITION TOGETHER WITH ABOUT 60 OR 70% OF THE CARHAULERS AND SEND IT TO HOFFA. ALSO, I DON’T THINK ALLIED AUTOMATICALLY GOES TO FULL SCALE, I THINK IT HAS TO BE NEGOTIATED, THEY SHOULD HAVE PUT IT IN THE CONTRACT, OR JUST DID A 2 YEAR CONTRACT,FREEZING EVERYTHING, WE HAVE LOST SO MUCH OF OUR BUYING POWER THE LAST 6 YEARS.

AND IT SURE DOESN’T SOUND LIKE HE IS WORKING FOR US,
