Don't forget we have election of officer's next Tuesday!  We also will have another informational meeting next Tuesday at 4:30pm before the Union meeting and then another one at 5:30pm after the meeting for anyone who missed tonight's meeting. We will vote on the tentative contract on April 10, 2012.

We have reached a tentative agreement with the company! We will have an information meeting Wed (3/28) from 4:30pm till 6pm.

We are very close to an agreement. We meet again next Tuesday. Remember informational meeting next Wednesday 3/28/12.

Today we met with the company this afternoon and had discussion around technology side letter and console and bidding rights. No results on any. We will meet tomorrow in the morning for the refinery and in the afternoon for R&D.

Tomorrow 3/22  the clerks meet in the morning then the refinery meets in the afternoon.

We met with the company all day today without much success. The company is still refusing to move on their proposal#3 to pay the console operators by using a tiered wage on future operators!
The company is also refusing to move on their proposal#11  Ability to Direct Hire into crafts if the winning bidder can't pass the Craftsman-level qualifications test within 60 days. Basically further restricting operations from bidding out! Furthermore they have also failed to address most of our proposals!   

                               Union Brothers & Sisters we will continue to work hard on your behalf !

We will be having a informational meeting this Thursday 3/22/12 at the Union Hall. It will start at 4:30pm and we will stay till around 6:30pm to update members as they go to work and get off the day shift.
