Union ContractFeb 15, 2010


Union Contract ,most building pay someone to represent their coop at the contract negotiation with the economy soso today the climate for a strike is close to zero , unless the union would like to cease.The porters and super are well paid for the job they are doing they get health care some of us dont get haelth care or we cant afford it .That is why we need Board people familiarity on these subject in my coop they know jack crap but talking about traditionrather than what to expect.We live in a world of expectation not tradition,my coop is running yearly deficit here at Sherwood village B we have a secretary giving bonus of one to two pay check as bonuses .I worked hard and provided the best to my boss, I get no bonuses, I get a card and I am still at work,here in my building it is call tradition and that need to stop.the former super in my coop who now resided in the coop was getting five thousand dollars a year as bonus from the coop funds withoutthe shareholders knowledge today he is a member and he dont even care.The current board uses him to tell other shareholders who to vote for just before the election our system is like a third world country. THEY won't strike and we must insist on good service delivery we are paying for it.
