Why are the blogs not being posted in the past 24 hours? You said they had to be approved now so get to it. I left a very important message earlier today and it still isn"t posted.

Has there been any negotiations going on between the Union and the company? Does anyone know?

To our negotiating committee, get off your butts and get our jobs back!! You were wrong in having us turn this offer down.

I wonder how many units have been shipped as of this date. It looks like money is no object for the company, paying 35.00 per hour for scab labor. Bet, the security guard company is costing a lot, as well.This strike is going to take it's toll on everyone ! It is time to get back to the table and get a good contract.

It looks like the company has lot of money. Hiring scab workers for 35.00 an hour. ( 60.00 for overtime ) I bet those security guards they are using to watch us are costing a lot, as well. This strike is taking it's toll on everyone. Let's get back to the table and settle this. If The company has money for for scabs, it has money for us. How many units are being shipped, now? How much SCRAP is piling up ? How happy are the customers, now ?

Hey! Get off of the negotiating committee's butt! They have done an excellent job, so shut up already! And there hasn't been anything shipped out of there, and whenever there is, it will not be units. It will be something under a cover to make you think it is a unit, I know this is going to happen for sure, so relax your uptight self! You also sorta missed it on what Vought is paying to have those scabs in there. The most money will go to the temporary service and to whoever owns the contracting service, then what is left over is what the scabs are getting $35 or $45 an hour.

Let us all stick together. Let's get back to the negotiating table and get a contract. I think the company is having a hard time pleasing their customers while we are on strike. The company does not have to be so greedy that they are willing to upset the customer to screw the union. Lets try to break the grid lock !
