We're just saying we want to keep what we have. If you care about you're family wouldn't you? Is that a crime? Are we not the ones who are generating that profit?
I want you to win,win,win.
However, voting No is not going to stop 22.4's, it is not going to make you get all sorts of new consessions imo. You're not going to get management to all of a sudden be warm & fuzzy towards you for the rest of your career.
What you're actually doing by voting no, which this is my opinion... is risking your livelihood and possible employment. If this contract gave up a lot. Charged $100 a week for healthcare, took away vacations, slashed pensions, dumped seniority and shoved it down our throats. I would being voting NO and looking forward to striking with you brother.
Greed consumes us all. I personally see this as a great contract and don't tell the Angry 45 that I actually have the right to feel that way as a dues paying member just like they feel for voting it down.
Yet, I'm for ratification. Thus I'm a troll, a bot, a company shill in their eyes.
It's a sad society we live in anymore. In my humble opinion
