The bargaining after ratification suggests we will bend over for it.
f. Regional Associate Mobility Plan – Bargaining will continue over the RAMP
process through a committee after ratification.
b. Meetings – Within 90-days of contract ratification, a meeting comprised of
the Vice-Presidents of the different business units and the Director of Labor
Relations along with six representatives from the union including the
District Vice-President will be held. The topics for the meeting include
training, productivity, performance requirements, forced overtime,
performance feedback, scheduling issues, and monitoring. Subsequent
meetings may be scheduled to ensure continued progress on resolving
these adverse workplace issues.
We have a grace period in Boston. Got the OK from my boss and steward to come back Monday.
What is this conspiracy talk anyway? Both sides had to negotiate. I'm glad we have a job to go back to. It sounded like the company was trying to do away with the Union altogether.
Fair warning to us all: if you don't like the Union or the company or both, plenty of time to explore other options in four years.
I agree, though I see the medical Costa as negating the raises, I still think the Union is holding the other shoe to drop onbus after RTW, especially with no grace period.
