Re: Trump found guilty!

We found that the issue you speak of on any type of poor performance issue with select members was entirely the lazy company bosses that did not want to go through the correct, agreed upon process. The contract specifically lays out the steps taken to reprimand or terminate. It's agreed upon by both sides in negotiations. Bosses just don't want to mess with it. Many times, if they did actually do the process right, their previous inaction on buddy's, relatives, or favorites stopped a valid write up. When joe blows drinking buddy did the same identical violations last year and nobody said a Dag gone thing... why? One thing a local cannot tolerate is favoritism. Do it right or don't do it. We were fine with reprimand write ups and encouraged them if members were causing other members increased workloads at no fault of their own. We had nothing to do with the hiring or number of members in the workforce. That was clearly written up in Management Rights. They own the place; they staff it to their desire. Not real sure how your commits on staffing related to the local as most Management Rights are very similar. We did sit in on the interviews as the company wanted our input. Sometimes we could spot BS when management couldn't.

Re: Trump found guilty!
[QUOTE=Eddies66;698384]Getting management to do their job was always a challenge, whether it was bonuses, performance evals, counseling, PIPs. They are either lazy or uneducated.[/QUOTE
If they are ALWAYS a problem, you need to look in the mirror for allowing mediocrity to happen. Fire them. You might be surprised how "random drug and alcohol" tests on Monday morning will weed out the undesirables, union or non-union.

Re: Trump found guilty!
This "healthy" conversation started when someone said "-I will always vote to support unions". How about if someone changes the wording and says "I will always vote for someone that pays me more welfare, or gives me an Obama phone, or gives me free medical?
I prefer voting for someone that will close the border, kick out illegal invaders, reduce inflation, reduce/eliminate CRIME/punish criminals/ 90 day death penalty for murder with 3 credible witness', fentanyl dealers, child molesters,. abortion should be a state by state issue, allow prayer in school. No school debt payoff. Massive reduction in foreign payments. I will vote for whoever does the most of these whether republican, democrat, or Elmer Fudd.

I noticed you did not reply to my reply on your smart assss "How bout this" thread....The one I shot holes through by explaining in detail how the union kept me in a nice defined pension. All while our sister nonunion plants over in Sparks Nevada lost theirs. Right to Work gave those people a real whippin. And we have always enjoyed better wages, benefits, retirements, healthcare, and working conditions. Can't you just accept we have different circumstances? I don't harp for you to see things my way, but your adamit I'm in the wrong for voting differently than you. I don't see it that way whatsoever. It must be a management thing where condescending is the only way to evaluate. I was never management material. I could never suck that much a***. Just not for me.

Re: Trump found guilty!
I am not trying to change your mind about unions. I'm trying to change how people vote for singular issues. Like: I'm not going to vote for Biden because he took a crap on stage in France. Or, I'm not going to vote for Trump because he said "grab her by the p---" how about voting for what is good for our country, in your opinions.
