I heard last night at 4:30 am that the voluntary Sunday was being canceled and they was looking into making a mandatory Saturday instead. I'm hoping it's just a bad RUMOR. The last time they got away with that was around 3 years or so ago and because cab framing was down for 9 hrs on a Thursday night and I came in Friday, ( was on acrew then) and at 1:00 pm they told us we had to work the next day. Union said they could do that on a short notice if they had a MAJOR breakdown of over 8 hrs. So we worked it. So far I haven't seen any MAJOR breakdown yet. Ohhhh, I forgot they probably changed that MAJOR breakdown from 8hr to 30 mins. My bad.

I heard bodyshop didn't get enough volenteers for Sunday . They can tell you Friday you have to work Saturday anytime. They have a hand shake agreement to try and give a weeks notice. But per contract they can do that anytime , breakdown or not.

Now why would I quit? I've got 20 yrs here and vested in a PENSION, Don't get mad at me for getting pissed at a union that is giving up what our union fathers of old, fought so hard to get and in doing so made hundreds of thousands of non-union jobs get better paying jobs as well. After going by the book, even if I liked it or not, and then now have them change things that they said was the rules, several times to suit ford. It starting to piss a lot of people off, a lot!

First off I'm not mad. But all I'm saying is stuff could be worse. I would hate to think I would always sit around thinking of fathers of old. Times change. You say screw weekends. But hey, you know we work weekends by now. 20 years and you still seem suprised. Instead of being online complaining every day about rats or anything else. Why don't we actually unite. Get as many people as we can to the union meetings and try to make a difference in the next contract. If everyone has the same mentalities of oh it doesn't matter to go or anything it will never change. You don't think ford would notice if we had 2-3000 people at a Union meeting. 3 months before contract!? Oh wait. What's the next forum topic?

Our old gone union brothers didnt have these dumb ass forums to sit on their asses and type shit into... They had to get up and get folks together. Thats exactly what we need to do...in a PHYSICAL way.. WE are the union not todd...scott..brent.. Or any of the other air conditioned fellas upstairs. Its the masses. Even if we dont stand together...Ford will be sure that we all fall together....AGAIN.

Lol Do you really think I'm sitting around thinking of my forefathers? It just came to mind. The only way TIME CHANGES, is if you let them. But you are right going to the meetings is a huge start. Which I do slack at.

Good luck on that can't even get your buddy to fight a job together on the line so why would he care about a union meeting..It' seems easier to me to get a message out thru here,I've had lotsa luck bitching about shit and boom next day someone from BC is there to help me..The good ol days are gone ..But we can make a difference on the next contract if we don't roll over and play dead.Hell back then there wasn't any RATs either..
