[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5578840, member: 49065"] Too early for that, the last one was taken in June. On these supplements and riders, I am glad that O'Brien and his team are sticking to their word to settle them before the Master. The Company's game plan when Hoffa was in office was to delay, delay and then stonewall in order to segregate regions and conferences causing division. If this "cost neutral" was accepted on our supplemental and riders the Company would have free rein to continue to offer inferior benefits for our members who are not covered under the Master (supposedly). Case in Point the continuing Pension and Health and Welfare inequality, are we going to accept again a Contract that has one area paying twice or three times the pension benefits as others. Back in 2018 (The Ohio Rider) for example was never put up for vote. Reason given that there were no improvements to be voted on, the Union Leadership at that time probably knew that it would never pass and cut and ran, we all know that the entire 2018 Contract was a sell out when Hoffa predestined passage, which was their original game plan before the 2018 talks ever started. Hoffa and his team knew that they were goners after the results 2015 General Election, what is scary is that it was reported that Hoffa even (after retiring) still was under the illusion that he could get back into office if [B]HE [/B]ran again. Once the supplemental and riders are agreed to...The Master can be settled in a day if needed, most of the Master Language deals with pay rates and benefit contributions, really hasn't changed much since 2008.
