WHY DID SHE DO IT?

 

What possible motivation would it be for a person who is a union “president” to sign this give away to the company?

She’s 100% sellout, and her incumbents should be given the ditch pic.twitter.com/2G7oc8GvkC

HE'S GOT A POINT

 

JOE RUFFIN FOR ATU 757 PRESIDENT

 I always liked this guy

BRUCE HANSEN ATU 757

 I’ve always really liked Bruce and worked hard to get him elected but he let us retirees down and I’m having problem letting that go

I know now that this might have been inevitable anyway since the neoliberals control every institution that controls our lives

DEKE HITS HARD

 Dear Boss, You disrespected me by ignoring my requests for a meeting for over a year. When you finally decided your schedule could accommodate me, I had long lost interest in revisiting our initial meeting. In the interim, you have allowed your non-union staff to run rampant over us once again. Randy Steadman's legacy seems to once again reign supreme.
