Here's an image that describes how most of us IAM 751 union members are feeling about the contract.



Edit: I did not create this photo. It's just something circulating around.


That is our CEO. If he were to retire today he would collect over $260,000 per month from his pension!!! Yet they want to freeze our pensions and make it so it takes over 20 years for all new hires to max out on the pay scale!!!? When I say new hires I mean anyone who were to hire on after the vote on Wednesday.

I just came back from the Union rally at the local union lodge in Everett and I'm pretty fired up. Some of you may have seen it on the news. there's far too much I could write about here but here it is in short...

If we bend over and accept this "ultimatum" then we lose everything we have gained over 75 years! the union fought for my rights long before I was born and I'm currently fighting for my rights, as well as my current and future brothers and sisters! The company wants to give us all a $10,000 signing bonus if we vote yes. I could give a sh!t about $10k if it means losing all we have fought for. There are MANY who feel the same as me. I think that should speak for how bullsh!t the proposed contract is, because lets face it folks...$10,000 is a lot of money to most anybody!

Here's a link to a website that was created to help educate people on what is actually going on.
