The company is getting desperate, I can't post what I know as some people would get hurt for helping us. Vought reads our blogs for info. Just stay strong and stick together the best is yet to come!
great video and pictures...makes me proud to be a part of a great union. from the old timers down to the youngbloods, we stand united for what is right and good for the whole people. i hope all the scabs feel this when we go back in.. the air will be different in that place
To the scabs who read our blog.... be ready to eat alone have nobody to talk to, go ask your supervisor if you need help as most of you did anyways.. we will always remember you crossing our picket line..being selfish and proud. we told each and everyone of you that if you needed help to go to the union hall they can help...but you chose pride and stupidity. we see where your morals lie..
sorry got on my soap box!! proud to be a union sister!!
hey vought management! we are all doing well out on the lines out here. enjoying the company of good folks and good conversation.. how are you all in there? i know YOU cant be enjoying good conversation your newly scabbed employees DONT SPEAK ENGLISH!!!! have you hired an artist to draw out directions for them yet? might want to put some thought into that as we hear they..well you (you hired them) have scrapped a lot of things in there! remember this.. "If your dumb...you gotta be tough!"
Great video, I know I'm on the union side. I see everyone at the rally and it's good; It makes me feel good. I have to apologize I'm sorry I can't be there in the mornings to help our cause. I've gotten a job to bring in some cash flow into the house. It's not much money but it is something. And I didn't cross that line. Yal tell them scabs to kiss off for me in the mornings,and in the afternoons. My picket time is 8-mid night on Fridays I can do that and work to... Lets stay strong and I'll always stay united with my union brothers and sisters.One last thing, when I got married I made a commitment to my wife that is forever. I hold the same morals to the commitment I made to the union. For better or worse, richer or poorer I shall not depart.
