I heard a RUMOR today that our next contract with Pioneer will be for ONE year only. Anyone hear anything at all. After all our present contract is coming to an end.

Well I heard the Easter Bunny is real. :yes: Now if you really want to have a topic on a new contract, I think if Neil gets an extension from OPT ( 1 year, 2 years, 5 years) we should fight (Strike) to get back EVERYTHING we gave up and also a RAISE from the money he stole from us from the last contract, since he Didn't lose ANYTHING! :yes:

Well, the promise to revisit the terms is in the current contract. I personally will vote against any more "Give Backs", and will do everything I can to convince everyone else to do the same. We gave back to much, and I want my stuff back.

As per Ernie: "Please, it's all bullshit."
I'm sure he'll let us know when there's any news of this nature.

I don't think it will take a lot of convincing.

Our present contract will expire at the end of June. By that time we should know if Pioneer got an extension. With or without any progress on the EPP. Pioneer is and will be a 1181 union shop. Pioneer has to hire 1181 drivers or has to CLOSED (GO OUT OF BUSINESS) his doors, and his extension will be Void, even if he opens up under a new company name. Now is the time to make our Stand. Don't settle for Nothing less than our previous contact and the monies that we lost in this contract, that we gave up under "Good Faith" so he can "stay in business". Our Strike will be much nicer on a warm September day too!!! :thumbup:

I read it ... only because somebody gave it to me. Wouldn't give that propaganda tool for the dissidents a dime. What's going on with what specifically?
