Two Halves Do Not Represent A Whole
Many of you have seen Our proposal package, as well as The Districts, in comparison at various meetings. A side-by-side viewing of each side's documentation reveals the stark contrast between the 2 sides.
That being said, We believe, based on your feedback - you believe that our position in regards to our list of demands is not only reasonable, but achievable. Simply put --- The District appears to be more than adequately equipped, economically speaking, to meet those demands.
Really?!
As for The District's position and their proposals, well to give you an idea as to the absurdity of their overall package --- their idea of a wage adjustment was a 1% increase in the final year of a 3 year contract.
Really LTD?! Really? One point in 3 years? When food costs are nearly 20% higher than they were the previous year? REALLY LTD?
After YOU gave the incoming GM a handsome boost in pay over the former GM's salary, even though he came from a property half the size of LTD and just started here? Really?!
No More Hokey Pokey!
We know the score Brothers an Sisters and it's time to take back our fair share. Lets stick to OUR guns (metaphorically speaking) and STAND AS ONE HERE AND NOW IN SOLIDARITY! We CAN'T LOSE if we stand as ONE.
In Solidarity,
