We have been advised that the Union has just filed a petition with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) seeking to represent our pressroom employees. While we are disappointed, we are not surprised.
Once again our pressroom employees will have to make an important choice that affects them and their families. Given the current business landscape, this may well be your most critical election decision yet. Over the next six weeks or so, the Company will make every effort to provide all of the facts necessary to make an informed decision. We believe that once you have all the facts before you, you will yet again reject the union.
We will keep you updated with respect this important matter.
After the supervisor’s anti-union meeting at our facility this afternoon, I spoke with Mark's representative regarding my access to email at work, and why I felt important messages arrive too slowly for the rank and file workers.
ReplyDeleteI was told the memo from Mark yesterday was intended for pressroom supervisors only, yet, the memo was placed in strategic areas of the workplace for all workers to see.
So we will agree to disagree on this matter.
No Duh !!! Gee Ed I wonder why
ReplyDeleteHey Mark all the FACTS we need too look at is at ALL the takeaways we've received during the past DECADE AND ON THE TREATMENT our fellow empyoyees here at oly have endured ( you know make a mistake lose you raise )

ReplyDeleteGood grief! Do any of you clowns know how to spell, punctuate or compose an intelligible paragraph?
ReplyDeleteI'll bet you also blamed your 8th-grade English teacher for "take aways." One being the “A” you didn’t get when you failed to show you could communicate effectively.
If you're planning a career of putting tape-on-rolls in this internet age, you're going to go down. Blame yourself, not your employer, for having no marketable job skills.

Here we go again; it's time for our semi-annual union drive. How does the union kick off their drive? The same way they always do, with attacks on Mark Kurtich. Yes everything is Mark's fault. These decisions had nothing to do with today's economic realities in the newspaper industry.
ReplyDeleteThe "outsider" is correct if someone can take your job with only a few minutes of training, you should be worried in this day and age.
