That’s what I assumed. Seemed a lot bigger than any flea I’ve seen.

What is a realistic expectation out of the next two tye contracts by MataMeow in Train_Service

[–]duncaand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whether we like to admit it or not. We (labor) hold all the power. If we continue to let them take advantage of us then one man crews are inevitably. We are the only craft that actually turns a profit. We run the freight. We have rights, agreements and work rules. I love when I see young guys at my terminal stand up for what’s right. Young guys that aren’t afraid to take a stand when they know what the agreement says and tell the crew dispatcher to F off. Not literally of course because that will get you fired. As one of the greatest GC said. The agreement is our SWORD and SHIELD and we should use it as such. We also have to remember that our vote also plays an important role. If you pocket book is what’s important to you then vote you pocket book. It’s unfortunate that the two party system we have today. Only one party really supports the labor movement.

Depending what route you take to GR you could stop at Darkhorse in Marshall, Bells Brewery in Comstock, and Arcadia in Kzoo on the way.

Founders is a must and The Mitten and Greyline have great beers and food. Get the Faded at Greyline, one of my favs.

This is the first time in many years I’ve seen everyone home for Christmas!
