DELACROIX
In the Spirit of Honore' Daumier
What happens when members’s monetary benefits are inferior to others that are stuck in supplemental, rider or a letter of understanding?
To put it bluntly, what happens when the Company purposely discriminates against a minority group of our membership just because the leadership is protecting the status quo.
What if the Company refuses to negotiate any improvements in those supplements and riders knowing full well that a vast majority of our membership are willing to throw others under the bus rather then fixing the problem.
That is why negotiating the supplements and riders first is so important. Has the concept that ALL union members should be paid the same, have the same retirement and healthcare benefits nationwide a pipe dream.
Every time the Company sees our members turn on each other when push comes to shove they win. If the Company wins concessions or the Union fails to address previous injustices with this Contract it will not be done by our elected officials unfortunately it will be done by a mob mentality of looking out for number one. To hell with the rest.
. Went from the worse peak i have had right into the first quarter tightening of the belt and back to stops per car. Idk how other centers are but my manager sucks. Then the one stipidvisor gets on my nuts about it "you need to do your part out there! You are taking extra times at stops and getting complacient you shouldn't be over...." hey if you want me to do my part then dispatch needs to do THEIR part. Set the plans for me to deliver 4 plus businesses after 5 almost everyday..... right..... its looks good for dispatch setting it that way. I gave them another list for one last time, i am ready to follow it and start missing businesses like it wants me to. /RAGE!
so one of the five or six pillars that he said were non negotiable. 22.4, pvd, sixth punch I forget the rest the union has already tapped out. This is going swimmingly so far.
