Our international leadership is out of touch. This contract is garbage covered in shit.

My favorite part of the presser...when Settles and King repeatedly said they took the employee surveys to heart and that most of us asked for 'more jobs, help for the retirees' and something else I forgot...then a reporter asked them what about the employees that wanted COLA and/or raises...King said, "our members knows that in today's economy, we have to keep Ford competitive." Damn, who filled out these surveys? LOL

Did they say anything about the grievance? There was a brief thing in the highlights about that. It said the hearing date for the arbitrator to reach their decision is November 17-18th. I think.

My gut feeling is that we will get a big fat ZERO from the grievance.

This is the weekest point of our union. We the pee-ons dont get to vote for our IUAW leadership. Fuck King and Settles!

True but we get to vote on this contract, and I hope that enough info gets out about how bad this contract really is for the rank and file. Once we start voting this shit down they wont have no choice but to do what we demand.

My favorite part of the press conference...they asked Settles if any of the union reps that came up from the plants today were NOT in support of the contract...He said, "there may have been one or two." I'm guessing there were quite a few...why tell the media that they don't have our support?

Proofread my post...Settles laughed when he said two or three didn't give their approval...not one or two...my bad.
