I'm ridiculing his leadership ... What legacy will he leave behind? A disengaged membership, staff that could care less about who they are paid to represent?
You talk all this about him today but what about when you ridiculed him just like we are now? Your in good with the local and now it's a different story? Is it because it serves a different agenda for you now? You talked about this man and about the local .. Don't forget that!
You want us to "work" with the eboard, the same eboard that has failed it's members! You want us to "build" our membership, for what ?? so they too are poorly represented? No thanks we need new blood in that local, someone who takes charge and makes bold moves to build, to create unity and power.. Not some stale BA that has been trained in a way that he doesn't put our local and our union first! Instead of going home everyday early, why isn't he or other BA's out visiting our members at the start times when they work... Our members don't all work 9-5 .. The status-quo needs to change,
And if you think "parking lot meetings" "car shows" and "tailgate parties" is a way to build unity and power then you should be an event planner not a Teamster ...
You have no clue on what true Teamster power is ... No clue!
