Stu Its true, in the bronx they have been hiring ever since we were on strike which also includes queens. Even the scabs that were working while we were on strike are working along side us and have joined the union. A lot of people got disgusted and retired and took the measly buy out. There was plenty of spaces to fill so they did it with the cheapies. Dont know that there is any law against it but the union did nothing about it.

He probably wont be hired for quite a long time. The companies stocked themseleves with 14.50 an hour workers and the union took them in in some cases a matter of days. They got 300 a head from all these new people and dident care about any master list. Those new people should not have been able to join the union
until the companies hired from the master list. Thats just not the way a union is supposed to operate.

Hey Newbie both the shop stewards in the bronx and staten island get thier information from the same source we also new about the NLRB delay in June. I heard a lot of good things about your shop steward I,m sure he is a great guy but so is Anthony from the bronx. The two of them go above and beyond what they have to do to help people. Thank God we have guys like them and sometimes its a thankless job.

Shop steward in Bronx said the decision was delayed until July 22nd.
