[QUOTE="Brown Spider, post: 1300557, member: 52461"] There is nothing about this that I consider a game, bigdope. In fact, it is you, member 6045, not what I voted for and a handful of others who have been running their own political game since the day of the Maspeth walkout. I have told you in the past that there are times when union members fold up their political tents and put all politics aside for the greater good of the membership. You are totally incapable of understanding that concept. You've done nothing up to this point but call on the Executive Board to resign and make absurd observations and bogus predictions. Do you even have a clue that it is this Executive Board, and only this Executive Board, that can resolve this issue? Do you think you could resolve it? [B]You're already stated that the 250 Maspeth drivers "have at best! lost there(sic) salaries and benefits with no back pay?"[/B] What do you even base that observation on? Yes, there are lives attached to the contract language that will be argued before an arbitrator. That's what make the contract language as important to me as it is to those 250 Maspeth drivers. You can ignore the facts of the contract language as it applies to the Maspeth drivers all you want, but it is all that can return them to work and make them whole. You certainly can't do it with your inane ready-fire-aim mentality. It would probably be best if you rounded up the rest of the kids and went back to that political sandbox of yours! [/QUOTE]
