I'd be there tomorrow if I could.

I'm all in Boeing. I'm fully funding it at 20% and will punch out at $95 or so. Good times.

I have hearing protection wired to a Zune. I only hear what I want to hear.

I just realized you were talking to StrutGuy2. My bad, I still stand by everything I said about you. My team mate StrutGuy2 knows how it works.

Don't worry, I wasn't frightened.

You are the problem with this union sir. It's trogladytes like you that give this organization its bad reputation. I am well aware of the consequences of crossing the line thank you very much. By the way, I don't intend to work at Boeing for the rest of my life. I have bigger ambitions than that. I've made no secret of that. If I knew who you were I'd do my best to make sure that the word most closely associated with you was IMBECILE. See I can use caps lock too!

Wow, I haven't even commented on this thread yet and I don't believe I said anything about returning to work on Monday other than that I hope we accept this POS contract that our POS leadership got for us. I am not a scab and I don't have tattoos. After 6 years in the Marine Corps I still don't have any and don't intend to get any any time soon. I think they're lame. They always fade and when you get old they look like $#!+. Next time you decide to vomit your threats and vitriol at someone while hiding behind the relative anonymity of the internet I suggest you go ahead and make sure you're directing it at the correct person. I'm not a scab and would never even consider crossing the line.

The problem is that so many of us feel threatened by those with an education. They want one of the guys out there fighting for them. It doesn't work. No time to change things so i'm voting yes on this contract and then doing all I can to get up and out before the end of whatever contract we accept.

I would suggest looking up Ray Goforth's resume. When SPEEA negotiates a phenomenal contract you will know why. We voted in our leadership and because we insist on not bringing in professional labor and contract experts we get what we deserve. We insist on having one of us doing our negotiatons. That's ridiculous. http://www.speea.org/news/Exec_Director.html

We're going against MBAs and JDs with guys without bachelor's degrees. These people hold our leadership in contempt as a result and negotiate from that standpoint. Garbage in garbage out.
