There is no way I'm voting for Hillary.  I'm proud to say I did not vote for this current clown who 1181 told us to vote for, he did nothing for us and neither will Hillary.

[Buzz]

Not only did he do nothing for us, he did plenty to hurt us!!!

Buzz, are you referring to DiBlasio? I can remember you and others when the strike was ended saying DiBlasio was going to do the right thing. The union got the nod all we have to do is vote for him.

No, referring to Obama.

DiBlasio is trying to help us. Unfortunately he and Cuomo do not play nicely together. Still, our delegate Vinny says they feel they have a good chance of getting it passed in Albany. They haven't given up that fight.

[WakeUp123]

Wait a minute didn't the union endorse and $upport Cuomo also?  and if DiBlasio is so much for us how come the union keeps telling us that they have to continually go to meetings with the city and the only thing that is agreed is they'll have more meetings? On the other hand I keep hearing the union and the "CITY" are in talks but the "STATE" needs to pass the law and the Governor needs to sign it. What's it been now almost 3 years? Why isn't the union in talks with the state politicians? Is it because the DiBlasio refuses to grant the " home rule" exception?

[Buzz]

The union is constantly talking to and lobbying Albany and we would be much better off getting this done at the state level (i.e., "Law").  DeBlasio realizes that and is doing what he can to get that accomplished.

[WakeUp123]

Like what?  all we keep hearing is that they are in talks ,things are moving forward ,we might be close who knows ,we'll have to wait, maybe next year, etc, etc. For Chris sakes how many times do you have to get kicked in the nads before u realize it hurts?

[Buzz]

Relax. Whenever we get whatever we're getting it will be retroactive to the end of the last contract. Let him take all the time he wants. In the meanwhile, we're working, we're getting paid and getting anything else that is due us.

OMG, THATS THE EXACT ATTITUDE THE STATE, CITY AND NEIL IS BANKING ON.

[PROUD MEMBER]

I'd be careful with that word "retroactive." I'd assume that is true unless in the negotiations it is stated and agreed upon that whatever is signed is from that day forward. Considering what we've been through in the last 6 years or so I would not be surprised if I am correct (but staying positive that I'm not).

[WakeUp123]

Retroactive yeah LOL you cannot even get this guy to put soap at the bus wash and you expect him to fork overb the thousands of thousands of dollars in retroactive pay.
