Exactly hohnol  that's why it's called a LIE! the pioneer owner does nothing but lie.But he's rich so he doesn't care.

GREED IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL

TRUTH: PIONEER doesn't care about the hard-working drivers and escorts all they care about is money

TRUTH: PIONEER wants us at poverty level wages it's hard enough to make ends meet in New York City

TRUTH: PIONEER wants to bring you down to the lowest wages in the whole industry while they continue to make large profits in the school bus industry

TRUTH:  Local 1181 has worked very hard with the City of New York and Mayor Deblasio to enable the City to use a $42 million grant to keep our members whole with the same wages, benefits and pensions

TRUTH:  Local 1181 and the Mayor will work hard to reinstate the EPP.  Remember the EPP protects the drivers, matrons and mechanics of the school bus industry but not the companies that's why your company doesn't care about the EPP

TRUTH:  Local 1181 is the only ones fighting for the EPP not your company, not another union

LIE:  YOUR COMPANY CARES ABOUT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.   THAT IS THE BIGGEST LIE OF ALL.

Well here's the thing proud member. If we want the epp back it won't happen without Michael and the cordiello slate, all the babies cry and fuss and complain about Michael,but reap the rewards of the contract and still keep our salary tenor and benefits and still want to complain.

That's an easy answer.If your voting the salerno guys don't bother coming.The majority are voting Cordiello anyway ,just like they did in their private vote.We should all be proud to be an 1181 member.If you need to hide the vote than you are not a proud member.Stand proud and be proud 1181.

Grimm's got my vote!

and who cares who the union or ernie votes for.It's YOUR vote.Use it well.

Thank you Grr for the spelling correction.
And Proud Member ,I can understand what happened to the passed 3 that were terminated. But I am sorry for not agreeing with you on the gm doing his job.He goes way beyond his capacity as a gm. He enjoys being judge and jury to people who were once his co workers.His hands has blood on them for neil.I believe Ernie and Andy are doing the best they can with the way things are.But I also believe we don't have to sit in fear if the gm goes off on another driver to get neils rocks off.
I know there are many drivers who feel the same as I do.If you don't I understand and hope for your sake you don't fall victim to neil and the gm.

People, you are discussing three issues that happened and some are debating on here. Here is not where we need to debate or discuss. What we need to do is stand behind each other and get our reps involved. Let them handle this, and let them guide as to what we can and should do. But we NEED to ban together not discuss what driver did what to warrant getting fired. We all ALREADY know wrong or right. But the gm is out for blood. So it only seems fair to say anyone of US is next. I won't give that ratbastard  all the credit for this he also has to answer to neil.So in my opinion it is Neil as well

It won't end on this website.We have to get our delegates involved.Let them know what is going on.Take the gm's power away.He is only strong if we all stay quiet.Neil is a snake in the grass and proved it when we were on strike and he blew smoke up everyone's ass saying how he wanted the family friendly business to run smooth again.What the fuk does he care he doesn't have the gm sniffing his ass waiting for him to make some stupid mistake.
What happened to his speech "go back to work let's be family"? Why does he allow the gm to target mostly women? If I'm not mistaken that is a sexual harassment suite just waiting to happen. I guess Neil won't mind if all the women the gm is harassing takes his ass to court.

I get what your saying John . But HOW did we all let it happen? I mean I know I didn't personally allow Bloomfuck to destroy the epp. And I am a senior driver and worked summers.So I am sure there are those few you are referring to.

But PEOPLE the issue is NOW. We still need to stand up and tell our delegates to do something or we will.

Listen we need to wake up the so called pussies because it's their job as well as ours. This is a cry for help among all the workers. It's not about new buses or ass kissers. It's about our sanity and our jobs. It's time to get rid of this disease. He's been a virus since he took this job. He's spreading faster than ebola.

Let me also add.I don't normally post on here about issues.But it's time all the people that work here and put their time in have a voice.What use to be a great job has fallen in the mud.Let's face it fellow co workers. You all must be going home just as frustrated as I do.Get out there and have our shop steward and delegates hear our pleas.

In all my years I have never seen a more vindictive person than our present gm.he has gotten rid of at least 20 people I know of since he started as gm.I mean WTF? What I hear on the rumor mill is  Neil will be sorry for his choice, the chatter in the company is he hurt so many people that drivers and escorts want to try and rebel and walk out to open Neil's eyes. And from what I hear it's going to happen  soon. I personally have called the union to see what can be done about this tyrant. I suggest the phones up at our delegates should be ringing off the wall. Something must be done. Let's call for a yard meeting. Let's get together with our steward and delegates. Let's find out what can be done to rid us of this animal. I'm sure if we put our heads together we can find a solution. Let's ban together.Whos is favor of going against Neil and the gm?? Now is the time to be heard. Please call the union ,all our futures are at stake.

So are you saying Tom Salerno was a firefighter and not a bus driver in 2001?
Because if you are how did he cross the picket line in 1979?

That scumbag Owen is back to his bullshit again.Neil must like the taste of blood in his mouth.He doesn't care what Owen does as long as it doesn't effect his family or friends.What a huge mistake putting this guy as GM.He makes Neil look just like the pussy he is.
