i heared from a source in management that Milwauke Wi (313) is on the list for the merger that is coming up. any one have anything else on this?

the local was down at 313 and put out a paper saying that very thing.

did it say how long it will be before the merger will take effect. wonder how big the seniority list will be ofter this goe's in to effect

hello my brothers lets hope its good news and we can get some of us if not all back to work as soon as possible !!!!

the wis kid are you working this week??? no call for me as on yet.maybe by friday i will get a punch?

keep an eye on this particularly in lite of all the layoffs recently, A manager read an email to me from a labor guy (M. Rowe, dont know him and never heard of him) that when two or more terminals are merged into a shared service center that the seniority boards are dovetail by seniority however if someone is inactive (or layed off) they would not be dovetail even they might have more seniority than someone at the other terminals. Another manager confirmed that very thing. I spoke to our union hall and they said each local meets with the labor man and negotiates whatever they are going to do. Dont be caught unaware. apparently this is already in place at some terminals.
