Morning PSAR.

Randy, Julie is in my thoughts, I hope you guys get good news today.

Rod, I am very sorry to hear about Nate. That sucks. Thank him for his service though.

Looks like I will be a day person now. I think. I had the choice to move to a Central office in Mountlake Terrace(which is the job I want, but I don't do well at all with traffic in rush hour) or stay in the "new improved" call center in Everett. I struggled with the choice, but I am staying in Everett for many reasons. I am hoping to have the opportunity to move to a job north within a year as well as complete school. I am not looking forward to where they are relocating us, but it's better than unemployment. I think.

I know this is an old(for this thread) topic, but here's my 2 cents. Unions are what they are. Being a member of a sometimes less than effective union, I can honestly say, I have great benefits because of them and this company would have stripped us of most of them by now if we weren't union. However, I believe most unions today have turned into something that are not really so much for the worker anymore as they are about their own profit margin.
I have to agree about with whoever said the contract is mostly about making sure everyone is treated the same. The contract sometimes makes dealing with problem employees a more drawn out process, but it also protects us from management(or other employees) that may make judgements and treat some differently based on personal feelings and or predjudices. It's purpose is to make sure everyone is on equal footing. If you have read this far, this is JMHO as a union member. I am not always happy with the union, but I wouldn't want to work for this company without them.

 

Good Morning PSAR!!!

 

GOOD MORNING PSAR!

 

Good mornin PSAR... I got a slimey booger on my finger for the first taker [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] You are a sick, sick man!

 

you can keep it i am all stocked up on those

 

I put it behind your ear just like my 3rd grade math teacher [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]...

That teacher was crazy.. She would pick her nose then wipe it on the ear piece of her glasses to let it dry. then she would pick it off there and eat it loike the candy boogers but it was real boogers.

 

And another piece of the puzzle as to why OFC is the way he is falls into place.

 

I been traumatized by the public schools of the greater seattle area [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Farm school was better by far [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] although when i got older all i woulda been educated on was the manufacturing of meth [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
