We must show solidarity with our brethren TWU Local 252 of the Long Island Bus - bus operators and maintainers with the threat of privatization (as all of you are aware the privatization is not a solution to public mass transportation). There are three events - the first and the second are rallies outside of John Cranford Adam Playhouse one rally will be before MTA public hearing the second one while the hearing is going on. It is expected that TWU Local 100 members show support to our fellow brothers/sisters in the TWU Local 252 of the Long Island Bus - it is our backyard.
As members of TWU Local 100 you are the leaders you represent the crown of the labor movement in the country and now is the time to set an example. Here are ways for you to participate: (1) if you are on Regular Days Off (RDO) - we expect you to show up, (2) Change of Assignment (COA) - get it approved at the bottom of the slip write ‘Local 100 function’, (3) Change of Day (COD) - get it approved at the bottom of the slip write ‘Local 100 function’, (4) Mutual Swap - find a fellow co-worker who is willing to cover your work in return for you to cover his work, (5) if you clear your tour of duty by 2:00 PM 1400 we expect you to show up (6) the last option which you all are aware of - ‘at least one hour before the commencement of his/her scheduled tour of duty for that day, cause notice of the...’
You members of TWU Local 100 have those options as mentioned above available to you. Now it is encouraged for all members that we should set the tone - for anybody who wants to know who we are by telling everyone that we are the union, we are TWU Local 100, the mighty mighty union. We will take care, and protect our fellow brothers/sisters in TWU Local 252 in our backyard.
