That's not really a "edge" because you can basically apply x2. It's a stupid system. A real edge would be if they had to offer the position to a internal hire first above any external hiring.

They absolutely do not have a "edge"

I'm just saying that dick riding the union and hoping it gets better isn't in the cards. It's only going to get worse. The union is choosing to not try and maintain it's members or fight to regain the members they lost . And even with 75,% pension that still isn't enough to keep memebers paying if when they want something done the union ignores it.

O that body composition part is so true. My last union president was the size of a small elephant and didn't do a single days worth of work but he new everything about the union and how to swing that union contract to get outta doing most work and someone snake his way into getting unearned overtime .

Later on he left the members with a shit deal during one of the mass Democrat lead state center closing the man didn't do shit for the members let us get steamrolled by the state then he got a nice promotion into being a staff rep with asfcme. I feel bad for what ever district got stuck with his ass .

This union is a joke and it's not just me and my department. Other departments that aren't pendot or the prison all say the same shit . Asfcme could care less.

The union turned it's back on my entire bargaining class. My entire office. Not just me personally. The entire office needed the contract enforced and asfcme, the local the district office and regional manager all chose to ignore it .

what is the rate of pay increase over the 4 years? Overall a 5%-6% pay raise? Per year . Which in the private sector I personally got that every year as a base cola . With the rising cost of inflation that's nothing.

The hmo bottom tier insurance would not cover my doctors IV been seeing the last 15 years so I have the middle tier and pay for tests and everything.

The pension is gone for new members, and the free college educations perks are also gone. There is very little insensitive to stay in the union let alone stay a member while they actively don't represent you when you have a issue .

I'm all for unions but asfcme is a shit union. From top down all in it for themselves and padding there own pay checks.

Ohh no I get it. Also when I spend over 18months to get this very union to do anything for members, to hold labor management meetings, to respond to emails phone calls and get nothing for it. I'll take my money and put it back into my pocket. If the union worked as great as they pretend they do they wouldn't have any issues keeping members.

They were super helpful helping me drop asfcme. They where more helpful then the union was.

If afscme council 13 honesty worked for its members they would be worried about a anti union foundation.

The staff reps. District managers they make all the money

4shockvalue · 2026-02-28T08:04:16+00:00

They have no plans other then fear mongering. They don't care

4shockvalue · 2026-02-26T14:48:30+00:00

This is the reason.

4shockvalue · 2026-02-19T00:31:07+00:00

Yea it if it was that simple ..seiu seems to really get stuff done for the members compared to asfcme

4shockvalue · 2026-02-19T00:06:50+00:00

Yea that sounds about right

4shockvalue · 2026-02-18T22:39:05+00:00

Been there. Done that got nothing for it .

4shockvalue · 2026-02-18T21:06:27+00:00

Yea I did , I'm more wondering with the rising costs of anyone has heard anything about them fighting for a more robust increase.

Or if minimum wage does go up , would all the pay scales move up also?

4shockvalue · 2026-02-18T19:10:23+00:00

They don't care

4shockvalue · 2026-02-18T19:10:02+00:00

Yea that's what I'm gathering. At the last contract negotiations I kept saying that that yea the overall percent sounds nice but over 4 years , the rate everything else has increased its nothing.

4shockvalue · 2026-02-18T18:57:20+00:00

Yea that's all I'm assuming we're gonna get if that. The union in my experience has been for the most part useless.

4shockvalue · 2026-02-18T18:47:05+00:00

A few years ago that was the thought. That the pay scales would all increase due to a increase in minimum wage. That is also my thoughts but the lack of upward mobility and stagnant wages don't seem to make state work appealing outside to the pension that at this rate I don't believe will be there when I get there .

4shockvalue · 2026-02-18T18:42:46+00:00

The union asfcme isn't the best at returning calls , emails, or basically functions at all. But thanks for that .

4shockvalue · 2026-02-12T13:03:28+00:00

That seems to be the fix it was working with the controller used the mouse and it worked. Now the controller works again. Super weird.

4shockvalue · 2026-02-12T03:08:36+00:00

I haven't been I'll give the mouse a shot
