Now the dust has settled down, and the contract has happened because of the commitment that was made by John Samuelsen as well as the raise which will benefit us all. Is it possible that we could get more, as the idiom says ‘a bird in the hand (is worth two in the bush)’.
Surprisingly our co workers do not ‘have a memory like an elephant’, just to refresh your memory - remember Jay H Walder with his ‘net zeros’? He stiff armed everyone, and he laid off 1,000 of us.
What did John Samuelsen do? He fought back, and got all of the laid back fellow co workers back on the payroll. He got us a raise that will be going your way. Think about John Samuelsen and his dedicated service to his fellow co workers - can anyone who is reasonable think this contract is wrong? We have weathered spiral downward economy and we believe we have come out exceptionally well.
We are aware of those who are unreasonable with their knee jerk reaction and who think that they have a panacea in reality have nothing to offer.
John Samuelsen has modernized and updated TWU Local 100, he has made it to be relevant as it ever has been, and he has made the right decision with this contract. Would you rather have someone who thrives on perpetual infighting such as the Atlanta cabbie?
Who has brought TWU Local 100 together? Who symbolizes that unity is far better? John Samuelsen does not act like ‘here today gone tomorrow’ president. We are united behind our president.
