Well Mikey since your so into honesty these days answer me this one honestly. would you rather be a knucklehead or would you rather be a hopeless ball-licker? happy festivus right back atcha.
Mikey, You really have to stop the name calling! For those who couldn't make the meeting why don't you tell us ( word for word) what Mr Flynn said. You being a steward should be able to represent what was explained at the meeting. So maybe there won't be any speculation! And if there was a vote here the answer would be NO as well. I think I have been in this business long enough to know BS, when I hear it. Tell us the TRUTH mikey!
PS remember the rules
no name calling :Rulz:
Honesty "these days"?
As for the name calling issue, there was a generalized statement about knuckleheads, I guess if you took that personally, your guilty conscience has the best of you.
Your inference that I am some sort of "ball-licker" as you so eloquently posted, is certainly a compliment coming from the likes of you.
There were several dock stewards there as well. Why would you take my word for it anyway? Ask your elected steward of choice, preferably one who was at the meeting.
I said it before and I will say it again, Pat did not have a vote in the matter of the removal of the white paper contracts. He was required to recuse himself from the voting process because of 710 being a party of the contracts in question. Why would you even think that he would try to change an integral part of this Local, like the area wide dock and warehouse agreement that has been in place for over 70 years? It just doesn't make sense.
The video that you question was made during the negotiations of the first 10% concession and his reference to the comments made were about some eastern locals that are famous for voting against the rest of the country. Pat did not agree with the General Executive Boards decision to re-vote not only a second time but a third as well. And if you look across the fence, it appears that the NO vote is having an undesired company response to that vote.
As for your request for word for word quotations, I would have to recorded that response to the question posed, and as we all know that is prohibited.
Why don't you call the man, and ask him yourself. He returns phone calls.
