Shear Modulus posted:i figured that if it was anything it was going to be a supposal. kind of surprised that UC didn't even react to the suggestion though eh, from all indications the SRA unit is full of people basically waiting for any excuse to scab, and the ucs are fully aware of that. In Training posted:thanks for the clarification, im gonna stop trying to follow this from way away the strike line, don't want to be part of any misinfo dissemination etc. hope you all can hold strong through any of this internal nonsense while also fighting your bosses! lol well, your source was 100% right, and apparently literally inside the bargaining unit. i was using outdated info. the bargaining unit vote to strike COLA passed late last night (at like 9:30 pm). the GSI/TA union is extremely mad about this. the tldr update  we'll see what happens. I'm convinced this goes through spring quarter, the unions of berkeley/la/sc/sd are all way too militant to vote this proposal up even if the UC somehow accepted it.

Yeah I don't foresee wildcat mass shutdowns. Theyll file a complaint with the NLRB and shitloads of people will work until the day they get their backpay and then quit, probably

lol gently caress that guy. Apparently the deal they want to force through grants the BU three whole unpaid days per year to go to the doctor, and the railroads “promise” not to penalize BUEs who are hospitalized or otherwise unable to perform their duties. Eat my entire rear end. This is an attack on labor, and should be treated as such.

it's the usual lib policy of "i support unions in general, but this specific instance a union isn't appropriate," which somehow seems to apply to every instance my boss gave me the same line before the UC strike started lol

I'd be terribly embarrassed if I scolded people to vote for this guy, but then I'm capable of self-reflection. I can't wait to see what the union slack at NGPVAN has to say in the coming days.

I really do not see what the Administration does besides showing off how out of touch they are, and how deep in the pockets of Capital they are. Neither are exactly surprises but...what the gently caress do they think is going to happen if they force this deal down the workers' throats? From what I understand the rail network's so understaffed it's at the point of falling apart already. The workers are gonna be pissed but I imagine a large chunk of the work force is going to stay just long enough to get whatever back pay from the back-dated raise the deal Congress forces through then bounce and everything starts grinding to a halt anyways only in a far messier and long-term way that's not as easy to fix.

I remember back when we were told Marty Walsh would be a good Secretary of Labor because he had been a union official before becoming mayor of Boston and appointing a former union leader Secretary of Labor proved that Biden would be a pro-union president, and now here we are.

SorePotato posted:Any other unions got anything to say about this? I've brought it up but other than some grumbling from individual members CWA leadership doesn't seem to have said much. Our org is pretty instrumental to the Democrat campaign apparatus and I'm going to probably end up in trouble if we just kind of collectively do a "what're we gonna do, vote for Republicans instead?" because there isn't a ton of militancy in my local and I'm going to start getting Very Agitated if we just let this poo poo slide on

wouldn't being a part of the election machine actually give you leverage since threatening to take your ball and go home, or even running your own dudes, be a credible threat

Agean90 posted:wouldn't being a part of the election machine actually give you leverage since threatening to take your ball and go home, or even running your own dudes, be a credible threat Yup. I advanced this position at length while we were in bargaining. Our ratification vote was just before the most recent midterm election and one of the major pressure points for a yes vote was that an impasse would create bad press for progressive democrats and hurt their chances in the election. I argued that if the company WAS truly invested in advancing democrat victories then our most powerful leverage point was the upcoming election; a lot of my colleagues still believe in lesser evilism and VBNMW-thought so my advocation for militancy was largely ignored or  'd away.

I did go on a bit of a tear this morning though and emphatically state that I will not EVER vote yes again on a contract that isn't proposed under open bargaining rather than closed bargaining. Based on my cursory reading of the minutes a lot of the more militant demands were not represented at the table in any meaningful capacity.
