Title: REFRESHER OMISSION
Post by: hognol on August 30, 2014, 03:43:04 PM
Why wasn't anything touched upon at  the refresher course regarding any union matters, EPP status, or the news about that 42 Million handout? Even if there was nothing new to tell us, something, anything would of been nice to hear coming from Ernie or even Owen.  But at least we learned how to pick up heavy items and how to walk without slipping or falling for the second consecutive year.

What further is there to tell? I'm not sure if a refresher class is the time/place for it any way. Seems to me to be union meeting fodder.

A *REFRESHER CLASS* is just that! It is not called a UNION CLASS!..
What more is needed on the info of the union? It's been splashed all over the internet media! Buzz does a great job of updating all of us drivers and matrons with his site and the FB page is another source. It's been in the newspapers as well. Need more than that?

PLUS the 42 Million...has nothing to do with the people of 2015 contract and I am sure I read this on here in Buzz's page. Have a good weekend everyone.

Yes Just Right, I know it's not a UNION CLASS.  Or perhaps you didn't see my words "touched upon."  I also read the internet media, but you really can't rely on that information since it is riddled with rumors.  Buzz and Ernie are a great source of information and in the past Ernie has "touched upon" information that was current at refresher classes.  I thought a few words from him would of been nice is all I'm saying.
