Actually, I am still here gathering statements to confirm the hot tub parties at the William Tell Holiday Inn.
Anymore questions?
You know, workers are just that. They are workers. Don't smear them trying to get to me.

She mentiond NY so I looked into it... Seems as if a local here just organized 1,700 school bus drivers. I have no doubt that they will get a contract that greatly improves their economic conditions.
Gathering statements? I guess this woman is a scab and a rat. How low will she go? Stay tuned sports fans...Im sure we will find out.

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

This same small little group dares anyone to disagree with their beliefs.
This woman defended her right under the NLRA ---- the same LAW we have all used to file ulps everywhere!
The NLRA was written to protect all the workers --- you self righteous assholes appear to believe it was only written for those who support the union.
Wow and how do you think those supporters feel now? Huh any idea?
I do like shit thats how they feel because LOCAL 777, THE IBT AND JOINT COUNCIL 25 TOOK THEM TO AN ELECTION THEY COULD NOT WIN!
Why would you purposely do that to potential members. And then thats not enough for you jerk offs, you attack a WORKER......WHAT KIND OF UNION MEMBER ATTACKS A WORKER???
Its hideous.. It was the same with the fs terminal down the road a few months back. Same local, same IBT staff and same Joint Council -- the union lost and why ---
When the IBT falls short on votes they turn to depending on a lack of participation. Typically, as in the latest South Holland election about 20% of the unit did not vote.
Well that did not happen in westmont and it did not happen in Hodgkins.
In fact, 93 % of the unit voted.
THE WORK FORCE HAS SPOKEN, JUST AS THEY DID IN WESTMONT AND THE TEAMSTERS LOST.
Forced union organizing is bad for this union. Pushing your self into a unit that clearly does not want you, trying to round up just enough votes to win. Stretching the truth, reducing dues, threatening the monitors the company is going to get rid of them.......this shit is no longer working. None the less they are still trying to manipulate their way into units to maintain cash flow. THEY spent three years.....three years trying to organize these people and a million dollars later....... 105 - 82
And no to the Stupid Bitch that said how many ever cant be wrong. That figure is way way off. Hodgkins terminal receives the same paid holidays as does Naperville with a contract. They actually received more of a raise than did Dekalb, Illinois who also has a teamster contract. The only difference is they will not be helping Joint Council 25 officials pay for their CHRYSLER 300's through the payment of DUES MONEY.
SO to the Hodgkins TERMINAL and Stacey who had the "BALLS" as you put it to STAND UP AND DEFEND HER CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO VOTE NO, I tip my hat to you.
You made the democratic process of the secret ballot election work for you and you did it without the resources of DUES MONEY.
While you all know I believe in collective bargaining and I think you all work for a shit company.......I wish the best for all 201 employees of the First Student Hodgkins facility.
Unlike UPS....where the Teamsters have been beneficial....they are not so in the First Student Companies.
I wish the best for you all.
As far as these posters attacking this worker......man no wonder they don't want to join this Union!
If the union lost what did the workers win?

I am also a school bus driver.
I can tell you from experience that the union does not help the drivers. The drivers get hurt by exorbitant dues (even though we work on average 20-30 hours a week we pay $54 a MONTH)
I am from local 610 in St.Louis. I have seen our union work to benefit truck drivers, UPS, even grocery workers. There is only 1 contract that is decent and provides a living wage that is Rockwood (where I used to work) it was not the Leadership that got us the things we had, it was the membership.
I also drove for U. City. guarantees of 25 hours a week at 16.50 an hour? How do they expect anyone to live on that? Out of that they want to take %51 a month. Grievances that are just dropped and not taken to arbitration. Meetings set up and canceled with no notice or reason given.
I have seen the unions work and when they do they are wonderful.
I have also seen them fail miserably and both times was with FirstStudent
