But where do you draw the line in the sand? 15 years to get where were supposed to been at in 2013 minus the pension.
I'm listening to the experts,the union executives, the union accountants and economists.
There job is to get as much for the members as possible without shutting down another union line.
I think they have done just what they said.As a matter of fact it's going to be a huge challenge for them to give us over a billion back in 5 years.
We've all seen the quarterly results for the last 10 years.You can't squeeze blood out of a turnip.
I also firmly believe as far as city and dock that we have it better than any non union LTL .These aren't like the negotiations of old where the union tells you they think it's a bullshitt deal.
Our (union) accountants have looked through the books and had open access to the CFO and they all came to the conclusion there was no more to give and remain healthy.
I've volunteered on picket lines for companies I didn't work for but this one I wouldn't waste my time with.
I think it would be ignorant to vote to close .If a man were unhappy with his job he would be much better off keeping pay and benefits rolling in and trying to find something better vs scrambling for income to pay bills.
Just how much did people expect? Haven't they been keeping up with the financials?
