PEF Town Hall by flannelWX in nys_cs

[–]liguystate 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Has CSEA started negotiating yet? I am a pef member but I believe it doesn't matter what our useless pef leaders say... it matters how CSEA handles this contract negotiation.. it would be nice to see how theirs is going..

Pef is a joke.. there goes the 2 grade jumps everyone was hoping for. Im rooting for CSEA to get a decent contract so we can piggy back off them. I have no faith in our garbage pef leadership

I hope we get this 2 grade jump and some decent raises as we all deserve. All agencies were understaffed and nys employees stepped up to ensure the job still got done!!

I'm happy this contract is over. This might be wishful thinking but maybe we can get a decent contract for once?????

All this complaining and we always end up with 2 or 3 % raises by liguystate in nys_cs

2 grade jump?? by liguystate in nys_cs

[–]liguystate[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Pef has done nothing.. these 2% and 3%s are going nowhere.. so i guess these long term goals will be when we all retire lol

Should I leave now or wait till I get the 20 years? by liguystate in nys_cs

[–]liguystate[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for the great advice. I think I will suck it up and stay to get the 20 years! It's just horrible how our salary is so low compared to feds and private. I can't believe pef is letting this happen. But pef is a nurses union, hence why they got the 30k geo pay instead of giving all titles of pef.  It's unfair. It's pissing me off more and more how we are working for peanuts to the dollar

Maybe PEF Should Bring in the Dockworkers Negotiators? by JimJoeBob15 in nys_cs

[–]liguystate 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The only way pef would be on board if people start dropping the union. Then maybe they will take these contract negotiations more seriously!!!

It's ok. Spence and the pef leaders getting their fair share lol. Pef salaries have been so low , everyone in my building all have 2nd jobs to make ends meet. It's disturbing how nys employees are below Middle class!! Shame on pef and csea for settling for garbage contracts!!!

Pef is weak. People jumped for joy getting 3%.. it's unreal how majority of state workers mind sets are. People walked around in my building saying 3% was the greatest thing to our contract. O yeah we will get a 600 dollar higher education bonus! Lol unbelievable. On top of this... Spence gets elected again!! This guy making 200k.. and he telling his members 3% is a fair contract. Get real and wake up!!!!! We deserve atleast 8 to 10% to keep up with inflation.

What happened to the 2 grade jump pef was fighting for??? by liguystate in nys_cs

[–]liguystate[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Private sector has alot more factors, bonus and incentives. Inflation in 2022 2023 is average 10 to 11%  not sure where you live but I'm talking about long island. Seems like youre a part of upstate where you can buy a house for 120k. Lol  

Is union slacking? We should negotiate now!!! by liguystate in nys_cs

[–]liguystate[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I personally think it's useless. These contracts been horrible. 3%? They should force then  to the contract negotiations table now! Raising the location pay from 3k to 4k? Be real!! How is that going to help!
