Focus is on health and welfare.
what did the great orange one do for us last contract. had both houses of congress and still did nothing. can't be any worse now
Correct. All the union pipeline employees are much better off under the current government. Oh, wait...
You will get what you pay for. Did you send your union reps any extra money? Did you donate to NS negotiators golf fund? If not, then don't expect much.
But don’t forget the union loving democrats have both houses and with the president there is nothing that they can’t do for the union’s that told us to vote for them, right?
Once the crew consist becomes a non-factor which it pretty much has, both sides are going to blame the other for no contract. It’s going to be the “same old same old” and probably be lucky to get back pay. It’s a joke.
not as long as the UTU is involved. will be the same as last time.
just like last time
Transportation is going to sign a trash contract to keep 2 man crews and everyone else will follow suit with raises just under inflation offset by worse insurance coverage. You can’t strike and your union is going to tell you it’s probably the best they can get and you will vote for it and like it and there is not a single thing you can do to prevent it from happening.
Big green weenie is what you’re gettin’!
we're gonna get something allright. get a tube of ky and wait for it
Watch and see that furloughed employees will be excluded from getting back pay.
Contract? We have had our last and final contract. It's over for all of us!
After the bloodletting of the last couple of years , I think the only negotiation being done is with outside contractors to finish us off .
I wish they’d hurry and decide the contract and IF we will be getting back pay so I can sign out and get my vacation money since I’m furloughed and not come into back.
You will get nothing and like it. The Union negotiators are too important to get exposed to COVID and the Railroad negotiators are too good for anyone. Nuff Said.
