Unfortunately rather than focusing frustration on the management of TRIMET there is a continuing focus on internal disputes.
Personally, I find this a shame, since its so close to election time I was hoping the internal bickering would ease up so we could all focus on bringing down Macfarlane rather than bringing down ourselves.
There are lots of reasons to be angry at President Hunt, some of his behavior has been quite tyrannical, but that is for the election to decide at this point.
Now we have another officer also on the hot seat, which is another distraction.
Can't we all just get along, at least until the elections?

Unions are democracies, you don't just wait for elections to exercise your rights as members /citizens. Dissent is the highest form of patriotism (citizen involvement) .
Al, read my response to your post titled "Letters" from a few days ago. Ideal for the membership to consider unity in Jon's leadership..captures then carries the message.
Take care, PH
Strength in a union or democracy comes from having an informed and active membership and citizenry, unity is the result of that. Blind allegiance
to leadership is better left to sheep and lemmings.
Besides ,why does a former high level Trimet exec feel emboldened to offer advice to the union? I'm not saying she isn't entitled to her opinion(and maybe she's right) , but I'm curious about her motives.
