I, for one, thoughit was pretty good food. Would have rather had a $600 bonus. But Most people don't get x-mas bonus either. I am not greedy, just could use what we use to get before now. This economy is wearing my ass out. Seems I am living paycheck to paycheck. And we make good money! What are people whom make minimum wage do?

The dinner wasn't too bad, actually better then I thought it would be. The sad this was when you went in there were about 15 of our officials standing around the table, none were smiling. Only 3 people in the whole group said anything. So with that being said...Merry Christmas to Rodney James, Donnie Watkins and Brian Kessenger! Thanks for wishing myself and my family a Merry Christmas!!!

I, for one, thank both the company and the union for the dinner! The food was good. But more importantly, they made the dinner about the work force. I don't see how they could have shown more gratitude for the workforce than to serve you your food!
Thanks to everyone that participated in making it happen. I hope they were also successful in collecting for Dare-to-Care. It shows they were only thinking of others during the holidays.

I didn't mean I was thankful but they could have had a smile on their face even if they didn't say a word. A smile or a nod of the head goes a LONG way. I for one told each and everyone of them Merry Chirstmas and Happy New Year.

I know very few people on the frame line that went..... All for the same reason What was the reason? I don't know, the company doing everything they can to stall and not live up to the equity of sacrifice part of the last concessionary agreement. Too many of us think we're all best friends now......and too many of us act like it. Not saying that getting your lunch is "wrong" in any way shape or form. It's just that the mood/morale for some of us is a little "off"' right now....... |

The whole meal idea was lame. If the union wants to show its appreciation to its membership, they need to GROW A PAIR and demand that the company give us back our Christmas bonus!!!! Throwing a meal at the workers is an insult to what we have given up to save the company!!!
