Great communication Local 710

August 1st. Why in the hell would it take that long?

August 1st. Why in the hell would it take that long?

If you read back, that was the initial rumor that somebody heard from a BA. There's no way in hell he heard him right, though.

 

[BuckyBadger]

August 1st. Why in the hell would it take that long?

That's what my ba said. This august.

 

[Brownslave688]

That's what my ba said. This august.

He must have thought you were tied in with the national. Or he just really sucks

 

[Mugarolla]

Reliable source: 710 is currently making the new rate, and will see it on their next check.

Retro checks March 1st.

I feel like I'm breaking news here. This is good.

Retro checks in 45 days....Somewhat reasonable.

 

[Mugarolla]

That's what my ba said. This august.

Are you sure he didn't say "from" August.

You either misunderstood what he said or he has no idea what the hell he is talking about.

 

[ski or die]

I've been retired for over 20 years. I hope they send me a retro check this time. Somehow didn't receive one in the last contract.

It was sitting at the building for a long time.

We finally used it to buy hot dogs assuming you didn't want it and were never coming in to get it.

As a former steward who was not on their Christmas card list, I didn't think they would allow me in the building. I still have my UPS identification card, but they probably have a picture of me in the guard shack. Would you mind picking this one up for me. I'll buy you a beer.

 

[Waldo]

So any confirmation on the 705 ballots? I heard it didn’t pass and that it will be revealed Saturday.

Good good.... these guys that didn’t vote can wait till the end of the year to get their checks.... friend it! You don’t have the 2 minutes to vote then you don’t have the time to go cash a retro check....

 

[cachmeifucan]

Not sure I thought they counted votes Saturday.4 days from now But I could be wrong.

 

[cachmeifucan]

Vote count in 4 days but I hope it doesn't pass.

 

[Waldo]

That would be so awesome if it doesn’t pass. Have the drama continue.

 

[WorkingAsDirected]

All the talk at the union meeting last Sunday indicates that the contract will pass.

 

[Gaintain]

Sooooo 710 guys. Are those raises on this weeks check?

 

[BuckyBadger]

Sooooo 710 guys. Are those raises on this weeks check?

yes.

And they're cutting us almost at sunrise. Drivers are beyond pissed.

 

[Staydryitsraining]

I'd rather wait till August 1st. Get 2 raises and a retro check all at once.

 

[cachmeifucan]

So once again 710 guys got the .70 cent raise as of today.
