Hi all, New here, Just wondering about this election. Why do you think you would be better in the Executive Board then the people on it now? What will you do to change what is going on, or what you think is going on. HOW will you do it? A union is only as strong as it's rank and file.. You can't beat people up (ok maybe in my Dad's days you could) But not now. Give us some examples of what you would do. Some people say they are only taking care of small stuff. You have to handle any grievance that a member gives you. You don't just pick and choose what will make you look good. If a grievance is put in by a member it's big to them. I saw everything they took to the board, Yes alot is deadlocked but at least they took it there and tried. Deadlock only means that it's going to arbitration now. UPS is not playing nice, I think they are doing a great job. I ask you to tell me what your plans are to do better, just don't say we need change. Last time someone said that we got stuck with Obama! I think you should pick a new slogan.... So what are you going to do to "change" it and don't give me a Bush or Obama answer.
all good questions. At the same time I respect grateful marks interests in keeping the election debate civil. It is a refreshing change from the standard local cowtowing to the company crap that gets posted here.
