If it was anything good they would be screaming the details from the mountain top. Get ready for a turd in the punch bowl.

i agree with what your saying...that will give them two months in the 2nd quarter of cheap pay before than can start blaming everything on the big raises the teamsters got.... probably last good quarter all year....they use that excuse anyhow last 10 years for tough 2nd quarter..contractual employee raises, and we got what, mostly .30 raises...if we get anything decent, maybe never show a profit again!!!
Can you tell me who will attend the 2 man meetings? Stewards? BA's? Hand picked "yes" men? I know I did not get my invite!
2 business agents from each freight local will attend.
Before everyone starts ranting about how we’re going to get screwed, keep something in mind- Tyson Johnson was the one who was in charge of freight all these years. Tyson Johnson was “Captain give away” in my opinion.
Ernie Soehl negotiated this contract. I don’t know him, but I’m told he’s no Tyson Johnson.

I hope when everyone sees this contract they will remember one thing: elections have consequences. Hoffa’s regime has never negotiated a good contract for us.
They did it while 15% of your memory was asleep.I don't remember VOTING on the 60 day extension ?????

There typically isn't a vote on extensions.I don't remember VOTING on the 60 day extension ?????
The 60 day extension is bullshit. Both sides knew the MOU was expiring, but even if negotiations got dragged out. Give the members a little respect and release the info, we should have it well before the two man meetings.I don't remember VOTING on the 60 day extension ?????

I just hope they remember to negotiate back pay.
The 60 day extension is. Both sides knew the MOU was expiring, but even if negotiations got dragged out. Give the members a little respect and release the info, we should have it well before the two man meetings.
There is protocol. Release contract to rank and file before two man committee meetings? Not how it works.
Ernie was in charge of the Abf contract & we all see how well that turned out. We just found out that in order to get you weeks vacation back your anniversary date is April 1st not company anniversary date. Several people had to pay back that week.... Thanks Ernie....

if it's coming from your local's BA it's probably true BUT, they're not allowed to discuss until officially announced. Let's just say I didn't hear that..

Never know nowadays
I didn’t say it’s how works, just an opinion that you or I should be able tell our local how we feel about what has been negotiated so they can better represent us at the two man meeting.
