[QUOTE="804brown, post: 1158212, member: 29553"] Not crying, just illustrating the weak contracts we had in the past and a much improved one this time. You and other haters have wanted our local to fail JUST TO SEE THEM FAIL. you all had no concern for the membership. It was all about trying to embarrass this new board and not allow them to succeed. Like I said before, the election is over. It was time to put all that behind us yet to the haters, it never ended. This board was not allowed to succeed so the haters had to pull out all the stops and lie to the members about what was in it and who was responsible for the part time health care changes. They had to take advantage of the members distrust of Hoffa and try to attach our new board to Hoffa. Congratulations!! You succeeded in turning down a strong supplement. So you feel like you accomplished something?? Listen in 2007, we accomplished something: we turned down a concessionary supplement (Redmond/buhlert/donato's baby)that GAVE AWAY 25 AND OUT!! That was worth turning down. LOL, no one in your center liked this contract or this board...YET THEY WON RE ELECTION NOT TOO LONG AGO BECAUSE THEY MEMBERSHIP TRUSTED THEM TO NEGOTIATE A STRONG SUPPLEMENT. And they did just that. You describe it as "garbage" and "eye candy"?? Name another local that increased their pension by $400 or got a guarantee of 100 new full time jobs. That's garbage?? As for the board "failing", the only thing they failed to do was rebut all the lies and misinformation put out by clowns like yourself. Clowns whose ONLY intention was to hurt the board. Our board put out a survey. We took the survey. They delivered on our demands. Then they turn it down?? Sounds like the membership is very confused (NO on which one??)or not sure what they want or are so cynical that they would listen to a small group of E/B haters and old guard members selling fiction. Our E/B failed to realize they actually had to SELL their supplement. I guess they assumed when you give the members what they actually want and demanded, it was a no brainer!! WRONG!! A few board members were at my building ONCE in the parking lot answering questions. ONCE!! There was no formal GET OUT THE VOTE campaign. A negative narrative developed early from rumors and that is when the contract went down. Im all for getting as much as we can get from UPS but to call our supplement ''GARBAGE" is ridiculous!!
