You are correct, most of us (67%) voted for a contract that had no clear language. Most of the guys that just come for their paycheck and pay no attention to anything around them, had no idea of the grey language. Every time we would inform them about a grey issue, they would say " I didn't know that". Shame on them for not being involved! Most of them didn't want to know about the grey areas because they were voting yes either way. These are the same guys that could care less about all of the lay-offs and the guys that are losing their jobs. They didn't care about the contract back then and they don't care now, because they are not near the bottom of the seniority list. These guys cannot spell BROTHERHOOD. They don't understand that we do not get the pay, benefits, retirement, etc. because the company feels generous, its because the UNION MEMBERS made a stand at some point in the past and fought for it. These MEESTERS will not make a stand for any cause. They think that it doesn't effect them. They are wrong! But they just don't care about anyone but themselves. We tried to forewarn everyone of the potential problems with this contract, but obviously we failed. But, everyone is correct about one thing, the union and the company DID sell us on it. I just keep hoping that WE learned a lesson with this mess, and fix this by educating others on the meaning of Brotherhood!
