......somebody better put you back into your place.....
Thanks for all of your calls and emails. I am trying to answer all of you and keep up on here too. I will answer everybody that contacts me - promise.
Stay TIGHT EVERYBODY - WE HAVE A DECISIVE MAJORITY.
To the few who are second guessing themselves........
Don't be fooled you guys.........TONY IS NOT BEING TRUTHFUL (What a surprise from these guys.)
Tony is making his rounds and I have a problem with what he is saying to you. He is threatening you with the SAME EXACT WEAPON HE HAS BEEN BEATING YOU WITH AS A NON-UNION WORKER AND NOW HE CLAIMS THAT WEAPON CAN ONLY HIT YOU IF YOU ARE A MEMBER OF IBEW 363.
That's Bull Tony. You already sliced THE PEOPLE and FROM NOW ON we want to NEGOTIATE.
He purposely paints you all a blurry picture, so let me clear it up a little.
First Let's talk about what Tony DOES NOT AND CANNOT SAY:
"WITH NO UNION YOU WON'T LOSE ANYTHING EVER AGAIN."
"WITH NO UNION YOUR HEALTH BENEFIT CONTRIBUTION WILL BE LOWERED OR STAY THE SAME."
"WITH NO UNION WE PROMISE NOT TO COMPARE YOUR WAGES TO JACKSONVILLE."
"WITH NO UNION WE WILL NOT MAKE CHANGES THAT WILL COST YOU ANY MORE MONEY."
"WITH NO UNION OR CONTRACT YOU HAVE MORE RIGHTS."
"WITHOUT THE UNION YOU WILL GET RAISES."
"WITHOUT THE UNION I WILL CONTINUE TO PAY THIS MUCH ATTENTION TO YOUR NEEDS."
Tony cannot make those statements because they ARE NOT TRUE!
THE TRUTH IS THAT THEY ARE PLANNING to ATTACK WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE - AND WITH IBEW LOCAL 363 THERE AS YOUR REPRESENTATIVE - Tony won't have the CAKEWALK that he WILL have IF he can keep you without a contract.
It's really very simple. Enslaved people have jobs but have no rights. How much do you really want to have in common with that? I would have to say PROBABLY NOTHING, WOULDN'T YOU?
TONY WANTS YOU TO VOTE "NO" FOR HIM - NOT YOU:
Don't forget there is a REWARD FOR TONY if he keeps you NON UNION.
Maybe Tony gets a cool Million.......must be WORTH A HECK OF A LOT! HUH GUYS?
VOTE NO and YOU will INSTANTLY become insignificant once again - right where you shouldn't be - to allow Tony, Brito or anybody else to reach into your pocket and TAKE WHAT THEY WANT - ANYTIME. AND YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT.
...VOTE NO AND YOU WILL ALSO HAVE NOTHING standing in the way of THEM tripling your health coverage contribution or DROPPING YOUR WAGES. THAT IS WHEN YOU WILL BE IN TROUBLE. When you have no say in any of it. THAT IS WHEN YOU CAN FEAR TONY!
LET'S CHANGE THAT TOGETHER. Let's stand together and make sure THAT FROM NOW ON we get what we should and that we are not to be kept like their children and fed like their pet birds.
DON'T FORGET AB IS GONE EVERYBODY. PROTECT YOURSELF! DON'T THROW AWAY YOUR FUTURE.
Tony says that you can get less if you vote the union in.
Why is that Tony? YOU ALWAYS seem to leave that part out, why? Tell us all Tony - Who will it BE to propose lower or freezing wages?
Not the IBEW Tony. We only propose what the people want. I can assure YOU Tony that THEY will never PROPOSE to make less money.
SO THAT ONLY LEAVES - YOU TONY - AS THE CAUSE OF ANY WORKER MAKING ANYTHING LESS IF THAT EVER HAPPENS. THAT'S ALL ON YOU - UNION OR NON-UNION - THAT CAN ONLY COME FROM YOUR OWN SWEET LIPS.
The difference FOLKS is that with the IBEW the people get to come to that table and bargain how EVERYTHING will effect them. AND Tony doesn't LIKE THAT.
TOO BAD THIS TIME TONY, TOO BAD. WE WILL MAKE IT WORK. YOU AND I.
What is Tony REALLY afraid of?? It's us Tony, it's your canners baby. We the people. The people whose hands you just shook all day today whispering sweet nothing in our ears.
IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE for you to double as the one who warns us of potential pain and TO ALSO BE THE CAUSE OF THAT PAIN.
That is ridiculous logic Tony. The true reason is that you are ONLY THREATENING THE PEOPLE.
EITHER THAT OR YOU THINK THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT EDUCATED ENOUGH TO REALIZE WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND SAYING MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL.
Well, you are in for a shock because they are educated and they are smart. They want a seat at that table and they are going to get it. They understand fully what is at stake and THEY KNOW THAT a future with no contract is a DEATH SENTENCE.
STAY TIGHT GUYS, DON'T BE INTIMIDATED BY ANYBODY, DON'T BELIEVE THE LIES, THEY WANT YOU TO THROW AWAY YOUR BEST OPPORTUNITY TO GAIN SOME POWER AND SOME STRENGTH....
VOTE YES FOR IBEW LOCAL 363 FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AND GET THAT SEAT AND THAT VOICE!

HEY DAN,DAVE AND WARREN GOOD THING THE DAYS HAVE RAN OUT BECAUSE YOU WOULD MOST LIKELY BE PUTTING MORE COAL IN THE BURNERS TO KEEP THE TRAIN A MOVIN. HEY VH1- HOW ABOUT QUEING THAT ONE UP? BILLY JOEL ( MOVIN OUT ) !!
This is like Christams Eve to me! I havn't felt this excited since my first bb gun. I am a grown man and I am finally going to get my voice heard. Long time comin join me my friends and lets bring in this IBEW union. We have no chance against the machine without a union and a contract. It is time for us to step up and do it otherwise we are just sitting ducks. I dont want to be sitting here a year from now JUST WISHING Sam was here, I want him and IBEW here now!
ReplyDeleteI'm voting yes right NOW.
The suspence is killing me. I feel like dancing right now, the union victory dance. The only problem is that I dont know how to dance. Warren, would you mind teaching me the victory dance? Dont worry, I will be the bigger man. That shouldnt be too hard. Put it in writing. We need a contract. I too agree with everybody else. We neeed term limits for teamleaders. Meet me in the morning and I will treat for breakfest after we vote yes. see you in the morning.
ReplyDelete"A weak man has doubts before a decision, a strong man has them afterwards."- Karl Karus
ReplyDeleteVOTE YES!
Hey! Can it be the real me: You'll shoot your eye out. Anonymous 10:30, good choice but how about some Duke Jupiter (look it up on you tube) for Sam "I'll Drink To You". Or how about Joe Walsh "Vote For Me". Or AC/DC "Have A Drink On Me". "Wish You Were Here" Pink Floyd, is not an option. And Billy Joel should use the company's designated driver plan. Rock the Casbah. So get on the "Long Train Runnin" (Doobie Bros. perennial hair test candidates)(imagine if they called themselves the Bong Bros.) and make sure the 363 Special arrives at the station. Celebration to Crosby stills and Nash's "Long Time Comin'. And to what we've been subjected to by management for the last coupla weeks: "Smoke On The Water". "Come in here dear boy,have a Cigar you're gonna go far, you're gonna fly high you're never gonna die, you're gonna make it if you try, they're gonna love you.
ReplyDeleteWell I've always had a deep respect, and I mean that sincerely, the band is just fantastic, that is really what I think, by the way which one is Pink? And did we tell you the name of the game boy? We call it riding the gravy train! We're just knocked out, we heard about the sell out, you gotta get an album out, you owe it to the people, We're so happy we can hardly count. Everybody else is just green have you seen the chart? It's a helluva start but it could be made into a monster if we all pull together as a team! And did we tell you the name of the game boy, we call it riding the gravy train! THE ABINBEV theme song. Corporate greed! My apologies to Waters, Gilmore, Wright ,and Mason. Get the idea? This is the kind of machine we are trying to tame. Vote yes to 363.
I voted no.
ReplyDeleteNo confidence in management
My pink paper was a yes.
Sam, saw you outside. Can't wait for the day you get a tour.
Also saw many people that were not working come in to vote. This is important, your vote says something. Vote!
