I like most it would seem have accepted the result. However, without entering into a tirade of anger about the whole issue I wonder if it is time that as ATCO's, we should address the issues there appear to be with our union. Having been in a union for many years (in this and previous employs) I am saddened and angered by the way they handled the whole issue and frankly think it has played right into the Barron's hand (Poker or otherwise
).
I acknowledge the support that the Union can provide to us members, but I think that the current representation (more at a higher level from what I understand) is weak and quite frankly not conducting itself in its members interest, more for their own political gain.
I can't offer an alternative (unless the T&G would open its doors) but think we need to act now to show the union and management that we are a force to be reckoned with....it's time the worm turned
