Good news, We will be receiving our surveys before the weekend. They will be mailed out tomorrow, Tuesday Feb. 20th. Be sure to study it thoroughly and be sure to include any and all issues and concerns that you would like addressed in negotiations. I suggest that you write down those things you want in your contract so that you don't fail to include it in your survey.

If you have not been receiving the mailings from the Teamsters, You need to provide a current mailing address to insure that you receive the survey as well as all the literature and information that will be made available in the future. You can send it to this site and it will be forwarded to Marty to update the mailing database.

Look forward together!

I apologize for having not put any information up on the Blog for a short while. We understand that management visits this site on a regular basis looking for information that they can use against us. Five pages from this site were used in the hearings in an attempt by management to make one of their points. The Hearings were held on Thursday and Friday the 14th and 15th of Feb. at the N.L.R.B. offices in L.A. It doesn't appear that any of the companies objections will be sustained, thus we don't believe that the Regional Director will have any reason to set aside our election results and the results will be certified.

The Nominations for The Negotiation Committee Members are complete and those indivduals will be announced so that everyone will know who was willing to serve on the committee and participate in an election. The election information will be presented by Marty Keegan and be forthcoming. The surveys are also coming very soon.

Thats pretty much it for now, if you have any questions, you can contact me and we will get you answers quickly.

Your Brother in solidarity,
Ronnie Pineda
