But I do think that the Union should provide some kind of buffer between an aggressive, confrontational Management and the Members. To recommend a “Yes” vote seemed to fail us all. Perhaps there is some substance in remaining in the HKAOA just to vote “NO” but ultimately what will happen? Nothing. Therefore I see no reason to remain engaged with a Union which does not act as a Union.
No rant.
I just do not see the point.
Kenfoggo - you are right I am tarring you with a broad brush. I get frustrated - as I did in 2001 - with lots of big talk. And yes of course there is action between here and 'strike'.
apologies!
