So I guess it's every shift for themselves with the firewood, huh? This morning's 6 a.m. guys would like to thank yesterday's 2 - 6 p.m. shift for leaving not so much as a toothpick to burn on an 11-degree morning!

How about congressman Grimm he can come to are yard shaking hands looking for votes and now no where to be seen. I called and e mailed him and called his office several times only to get an e mail defending Bloomberg. This will not be forgotten in his next election.

I am totally for the union, but we are striking our contractor and we should be protesting the board of ed.. we have our contract still. I hope this does not turn out to be like what grandpa's bus company did to Jo lo bus company. We are losing so much money now, no benefits. soon. The mayor is looking to bankrupt the union. We should go back to work and build our union back up with funds and go about this with a different stratagy.. Also, guys when protesting it is not a party.. I hope our union will pull this off but its rough because the other bus companies are not involved with this, its only 1181. We are striking for everyone, not just us.. I feel the strike should halt! In a sense the mayor is correct. The runs are going out to bid. Who is to say that we should be guaranteed our salaries... We have to be more compatible with competition..we might have to give back money.. that's life.. to be competitive in this business... let's hope for an injunction tomorrow so we can return to work!
