[QUOTE="542thruNthru, post: 5248609, member: 48491"] I believe voluntary OT could work in some areas but not all. So many different centers with different types of towns/cities and populations. Then weather and or congestion. I just think it's a harder equation than we know. Though I think it should at least be attempted then like everything else forced from the bottom up. I agree that if representatives don't make the effort first than the membership will never truly get involved. Again I feel this is a local issue which if I'm being honest is a big problem at my local as well. Though I volunteer a lot and help to try and inform members and I'm sure you have as well. It's sad how many speed past you because they just don't want to be bothered. The only time members seem to rally is when they are getting screwed and it's practically too late. I also hate when I talk with a member and he doesn't even care and thinks of paying the union as just a cost to work there like it's how he pays for insurance. [/QUOTE]
