Just a reminder… as to how well the CLT Grievance Committee is doing. I have yet; to have a single time when they were not in their office, nor have they failed to answer a phone call!
I have dealt with past Committees, and this kind of dedication was not the case. CLT…we are very fortunate to have the dedicated Committee Men, that we currently have fighting for this Membership.
Remember how we got this Committee… Through the Democratic Election Process!
Let’s apply this same principal to all aspects of this Union, when the opportunity arises.
We can start Thursday, June the 12th….
ELECTION NOTIFICATION
On Thursday June 12, 2008 we will be holding the elections for the District Lodge 141 and District Lodge 142 Officers. This election is open to all dues paying members in good standing and retirees of their respective District Lodges. The elections will be held at the American Legion post 380 located at 4235 West Tyvola Road, Charlotte NC 28208. The polls will be open between the hours of 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M.
Tim, why is Randy now worried about electronic voting? Maybe cause he can't find a way to throw an election the way he did with the TA? Also thanks for exposing his many shortfalls!Things are heating up and I think this is great for the membership. At any rate, Randy Canale is on the IAM 'law committee' which will bear responsibility for the IAM dues increase that is to be discussed this September. If passed, the dues will be 'doubled' for many of us from about $500 a year to about $1,000 a year. 2% dues on pay if you want to figure it out. $50,000 = $1,000 dues.
Unfortunately, Randy has not come out against this and he has received much 'heat' for his staunch 'dues stance'. So he decided to put out a video today talking about the dues. Nuff said.
Below is a from the website http://canaleunplugged.livejournal.com
Please click on or cut and paste this link. http://team2008.org/videos/ .It will take you to Randy's Steamy 2008 web site. Randy has decided to do a video for you. In this Academy Award winning adaptation of the obscure 80's song "The Mayor of Simpleton", our District 141 Presidential Simpleton wastes just under 4 minutes of your time as well as his own.
Before we get to it, lets discuss the making of the video we shall refer to "Simpleton 1"
An all call was placed to some of Team 2008's candidates to report to ORD today for a secret campaign meeting(Geez I hope the rest of the slate doesn't find out about this). So Randy authorizes all these "Steamers 08" to use BP-3's to get here for the strategy meeting. What stumped us for a while was why would the District's technical guy Albert Abromitis be coming into town on a BP-3 which is supposed to be used for union business only not STEAM 2008 campaigning. Then right before mine very own eyes appears "Simpleton 1" starring S.R.Canale on Steamy 08's web site. I guess you will be able to tell in the upcoming days who else fraudulently used BP-3 passes on Stevie's direction, when their videos magically appear. Of course they will say that this is all lies and propaganda made up by ND08 but copies of all the PNR's may just be emailed to you. This is Big Al the video guys PNR 4JG1S. A picture is indeed worth a 1000 words Stevie!
Now for the video. M.T. Suit, what the **** were you thinking releasing this piece of ****? Are you trying to give ND08 the election on a silver platter. This ranks right up there with your 3 greatest acts of stupidity that I can remember. Convertible Notes, Robyn Eulo, and trying to force Delaney off the ballot by making him resign as an AGC. Guys go watch it and come back to me.
Ok so your back. That was entertaining wasn't it. A few thoughts come to mind.
Next time you want to copy ND08 with a video at least have a point. Randaroo if you had bothered to ever read those two documents you so conveniently hide behind all the time( Grand Lodge Constitution & District Bylaws)you would know that all the delegates had to be nominated and elected last month. STUPID!!
It's obvious that your getting your a$$ kicked in ready rooms across the system especially Denver & Chicago, over your plans to raise the dues at the convention. So you tell us this cute little story about how the convention will work and what will be done regarding this issue. THE PROBLEM IS WHAT YOU DIDN'T SAY STEVIE. Never did I hear you say. I oppose the dues structure change. I oppose the dues increase to a standard 2%. I am with my members and will not make a motion from the floor to change the current structure. Next time just sit there and read the Cat in the Hat to me. It will be much more rewarding then your bull***t babbling.
Finally, Is that flag real? That whole image looked like a fake background. Kinda makes sense for the background to be as fake as the message and the M.T. Suit reading it.
