For some, it’s whoever is in charge.

Sadly that's probably the truth. Everyone always thinks the next group is some how going to beat the company into submission and all they're dreams will come true.

I certainly was. I helped him get elected. I worked my ass off for him. So did a lot of other people.
Turns out a lot of us were wrong.
Power corrupts and all that jazz. In this case, power distorted.

Theres a lot that has happened over the last 9 years, but the lead weight that broke the camels back and turned me on ole Porky Chops is the fact that he just fired one of his inside guys that busted his ass for him for 9 years. The campaign manager that got him elected. Didn't give him or the membership a reason. Said he was an at will employee and just tossed him.
Actually, he didn't even have the balls to do that. He had the President of the Union do it for him. (In LU 251 the Secretary Treasurer is the Principal Officer. Presedent is just a useless title in order to justify a bigger paycheck, really.)
Imagine a supposed labor leader firing a guy just because he can. I hear it happened on the day the guy returned from a medical leave. That's some cold hearted, hypocritical
right there. Cant wait till he goes to the news with it. It's a hell of a story.

Didn't he come out of the hub as a 22.3 ?

At the very least, he thought he would cut those mutton chops off

If I remember the slander correctly. He failed his 30 days twice and lucked out and got a 22.3 position.

You can take the 22.3 out of the hub, but not the hub out of the 22.3

I’ve had the unfortunate duty of being in or around local union disputes. More than half of them revolve around someone being bitter because they didn’t get a position in the administration that they thought they should or were promised. Or perhaps even let go because of poor performance. They become hell-bent on destroying the current administration, even if it destroys the local.
This particular one maybe 100% accurate but I tend to be suspicious of someone claiming they have information on someone who isn’t even here to defend himself. Not to mention I don’t know why we care. Eventually truth will come out either way.

Yes it will brother. That's a fact. Consider the thread closed.
Just remember that you heard it here first.
