Damn. That's awesome. Go out when you want to. On your terms. Everyone always says why don't you retire. They don't understand till they are in that situation. It's a big decision.
Jimmy Hoffa is hitting the campaign trail hard and being received very well.

You have a great local.
Everyone has their own plan. I'm planning on retiring at 65.

I am 21 months away from that "big decision" and am fully aware of the situation.
Even with our proposed 20% pension cut I will leave on the first day that I am eligible.

Wow! That's a huge accomplishment. I didn't know you was here that long. Congratulations.
We have been growing membership, I'm happy to say that. I think we have over 7000, I haven't looked at membership numbers lately. Lots of organizing with school bus companies and waste management from what I gather. We have different meeting between the crafts, our film division is growing too. No air conditioning at the 728 Hall, it gets pretty hot in the Summer.

177 only supports KH. He is the only one that helps 177 with the contract. All the candidates on the Ibt slate don't like how hard core 177 union officials are in negotiations. Look at who is in the Western and NJ health plan. Lead you know this. You were there. They will be smart and wait until the election over then pick sides.

According to the 2 vocal TDU'ers in your Local.... the Local leaders suck.
They regularly post on social media, about this.
Are you inferring.... what I think you are ??

I'm not a TDU supporter but don't like H Jr as my union president... I also support my local representatives. TDU is not big in 177 but not liking H Jr. is... The beautiful thing about politics is that you don't need to follow a group that supports someone to vote for that someone.
It's a shame that union members don't understand that. The union work place would be alot better
Explain alittle more on this one.

I don't expect you, to be able to explain the Local BS problems.
But, facts.... are facts.
2 members of your Local, continually talk
about the IBT.They lost their their bid.... in the Delegate election.
Now, they are "reeling" on social media.
They can't believe.... what is happening.
