This is long terrible wait.

I know that it vacation time for everyone (except for me cause I bid pretty low), but this is the first contract that I have ever had to experience the wait and the anticipation. It would be nice if we could hear more information about the specifics of what LTD wants. It is hard for me to believe that LTD is so rough with getting an new contract. I have never worked anyplace that was union before this. It makes me nervous. I like what I read from Joe Hill, but I wonder if it is as true as it sounds. I definitely think that LTD wastes money, I see it everyday.

I don't like the idea of BRT. Anything that costs as much as Joe says it does will take years to break even for LTD. It also does not seem fair to me that LTD is spending so much money and is being such a tight wad for employees. And what is this bull shit that office employees already have a nice raise and we are on the outside looking in. Is this possibly true? I would appreciate it if someone other Joe Hill could confirm this.

Everyone is getting really uptight that I talk to. I am guess I am too.

I do know one thing absolutely! I will support the union. I will not scab. I will support Carol and the rest of the team. I really want to thank Debbie for her help on the extra board. She is great!
