1033...

OK, we're all familiar with that number now. Along with the phrases 'subject to negotiations' and 'as business dictates'. Bleh. While I'm quite certain that I'm not only one with a million questions, since this is my website, I'm going to put out a few that I hope get asked at the (*...cough...*) informational meeting this Sunday at Harding...

• Does $140,000 on the way out the door constitute getting kissed before they fuck us? Really, it's not the equivalent of taking us out to dinner, but at least it's a little foreplay.
• When will we know about whether or not we'll receive unemployment compensation? That's pretty valuable information. It will let us know if we need to start looking for a job now, or if we can wait a little while.
• When are the union and the company going to let us know what's REALLY going on with the business packages they want to keep? C'mon...do you all really believe that they don't have ANY clue? I may have been born at night, but it wasn't last night.
• What kind of information are we going to be given about TRA & NAFTA-TAA? Or are we going to have to do the research ourselves (again)?
  
• WHAT IS OUR UNION STILL FIGHTING FOR?

That's a few questions that we can ask. Remember, the informational meetings will be held in the auditorium at Harding this Sunday at 2:00 & 7:00.

Don't forget to show up...
