Bruce agrees with arbitration, but arbitration doesn't work if you are afraid of it. Stedman wanted 47 million from this contract and he got 50million and who knows whats in the details. TriMet is having a job fair in November I bet they will be looking for apprentice and journey workers for maintenance. He didn't just screw retirees, operators with the route blocking he screwed maintenance too, at least he screwed everyone and not just one group.<br />Speakerofthepeople1https://www.blogger.com/profile/15591969318541310654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595057345294486478.post-11585452769056517362014-10-25T13:43:56.162-07:002014-10-25T13:43:56.162-07:00I appreciate your defense of this whole deal so y ...I appreciate your defense of this whole deal so y did Bruce wait his entire term to come to this conclusion. Even Trimet said that 'there was no guarentee' that they would win the arbitration. I think the defeatest attitude guarenteed the worst possible deal. Mcfarlane got EVERYTHING he wanted.

Almost wish the vote had gone the other way so you pillow biters could have been fucked harder than what we already are. Maybe then you'd get who did it to you.<br />Did you already forget the results of the 2012 arbitration?.

ATU members saved 782 million over 30 years. I'm not sure if he isn't listening or doesn't understand what he just did to the membership. Next negotiations we better have someone else in charge!!
