Well, here we go. The Joe Hill LTD Project recently received an the following Email. It is disturbing to read. If this is true and not just "rumor mill" stuff that the writer suggests, then the absolute lack of respect for the workers involved is disgraceful. If this is true, then Hammbert is the type that leaves a penny for a tip if he did not like his server. The Joe Hill LTD project would really like to know if this story is true. The project edited out the names of the workers (as shown in red) that this is about to protect their identities. You know who you are if this true. Please drop a line and let The Joe Hill LTD Project know. Here is the Email:
my friend joe,Is this story true? The Joe Hill LTD Project does not know. But so everyone can get the same information, it is posted here for your consideration. By the way if you have a payroll issue be sure and let Carol Allred know. Payroll issues are ultimately grievable if they are not resolved and being resolved the way the reader states above is malicious and degrading. Don't let this go by without letting the union know. It is important.
there is a flap in the payroll area you might want to look into. this is rumor-mill stuff but i've heard it from several folks as of today. A DRIVER rode with me to eugene station each night last bid. HE OR SHE had mentioned to me several times about the fact that HE OR SHE wasn't getting paid for 40 hours/week. it was a very small amount but it was the principle of the thing that upset HIM OR HER. HE OR SHE mentioned the fact that she wasn't getting satisfaction from the usual chain of command. today it was stated that mark johnson and rob montgomery failed to appease HIM OR HER so HE OR SHE went to hammbert himself. HE OR SHE then recieved a dollar, enclosed in an envelope in her mailbox, from hammbert stating,
something to the effect, that he hoped this would make up the difference in HIS OR HER pay discrepancy. it was stated someone else recieved nine cents in a similar fashion. ANOTHER DRIVER related this
story and i'm not sure i've stated it correctly but HE OR SHE was hot over the issue because of the demeaning nature of the response from hammbert. maybe there are others who aren't recieving 40 hours/week as perscribed and just haven't noticed.
in solidarity,
A REGULAR JOE HILL READER

It is true...the pay part and the dollar part. I am not sure of anything more than one situation that I have documentation for. I have been told of one other, but that member has not approached me. The Union is pursuing this. If members checks are not correct they need to contact me or the Extra Board Liaison, Deb Bitterlich. We think the District has been nickle and diming us since Midas was put on line. Don't want to remain anon...so I will sign...Executive Board Officer Carol Allred
